(It's kinda hard to pick the right Burt Bacharach song for this, there's just so many good ones. But this one was used as my 6th Grade Graduation song, and considering it's real meaning, it's the most appropriate.) -EK Goya


"That's What Friends Are For"
(B. Bacharach/ C. Bayer Sager)
Performed by: Various Artists (colab.)


And I nerver thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned
I'm glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe I love you

And if I should ever go away
Well then close your eyes and try
To feel the way we do today
And then if you can remember

Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for

For good times, and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for

I never thought I'd feel this way
Well you came and opened me
And now there's so much more I see
And so, by the way I thank you

And then, for the times when we're apart
Well then close your eyes and know,
these words are comming from my heart
And then if you can remember

Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for

For good times, and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for
