Sometimes you've gotta laugh Even when it hurts Better still with somebody brushing off the dirt Who knows we're all ridiculous Yet somehow sublime He celebrate the journey And tells you to climb He tells you to climb There is no mountain of virtue Higher to ascend No quality More divine Than to be a friend Ah to be a friend So kind When you feel ashamed And ugly inside You need someone who cares With whom you dare confide To stare into your dark soul To see hop and light And tell you, "You're glorious I know you'll be all right You're beautiful, I love you I know you'll be all right" There is no mountain of virtue Higher to ascend No quality More divine Than to be a friend Ah to be a friend So kind So now you've gone away In a sudden gust of wind And we're sadder than hell 'Cause we miss you, dear friend Still it's good to know your great heart Is glad and restored Forever smokin' fine cigars at the table of the Lord At the table of the Lord There is no mountain of virtue Higher to ascend No quality More divine Than to be a friend Ah to be a friend So kind
