For my friend Sarah, who thinks her life sucks right now.
Untitled by Good Things
They have smiles that shimmer like the sun
On the ocean when the day is nearly done
Their laughter takes the rattle from my mind and my bones
In troubled water they're my stepping stones
And these friends of mine
Burn bright through time
Brilliantly shine
When life puts me to the test
I know I'm at my best
When I am with these friends of mine
Sometimes I need their consolation
Sometimes I just need their conversation
Sometimes I need them to believe in what I say
Sometimes I need them to make it through the day
And these friends of mine
Burn bright through time
Brilliantly shine
When life puts me to the test
I know I'm at my best
When I am with these friends of mine
There are things inside myself
That belong to something else
A friendship is measured in emotional degrees
And each unlocked with a golden key
And these friends of mine
Burn bright through time
Brilliantly shine
When life puts you to the test
You'll be at your best
If you have friends like mine
