listen close, as close as I am to you
E A H7 E
like the bell of liberty, Ill ring a sound thats true
E A E
and days go by and seasons too
E A H7 E
in time our love may digress with the words we can renew

C#m H7 E
Ill tell you that I
C#m H7 E
I love you by and by
C#m H7 E
I dont know if Id survive
C#m H7 E
without a friend like you in my life
and I know words can be the worst to purvey
how it is I feel for you its hard for me to say
but if we keep it simple I think its better that way
tangled words tend to lead my messages astray
Ill tell you that I
I love you by and by
I dont know if Id survive
without a friend like you in my life
this web we weave holds us hand in hand
and if we loosen our grips we may weaken these strands
so lets reinforce our love and let it echo through the land
and if we dont we may find ourselves washed up with the sand
Ill tell you that I
I love you by and by
I dont know if Id survive
without a friend like you in my life
Ill tell you that I
I love you by and by
I dont know if Id survive
without a friend like you in my life
