Now It's A Beautiful Day
The Postman delivered a letter from your lover

As a matter of fact, you're getting used to life, without him in your way
It's so easy now, Cos' you've got friends you can trust

Friends Will be Friends
When You're in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends

Hold out your hand
Cos' friends will be friends... Right till the end
