A Friend In The World |
| She always said the world was overrated |
| And she couldn’t take the drama it created |
| It’s a wonder that she didn’t wind up jaded |
| From all the times she’s been let down |
| Well, Mum and Dad split up when she was four years old |
| And left the world as she knew it spinning out of control |
| And she grew up feeling a hole in her soul |
| Cause they were never around |
| She said, «why's everybody always leaving? |
| I just want someone to believe in |
| And someone to believe in me» |
| When you can’t find a friend in the world |
| A friend in the world |
| Love is reaching down |
| When you can’t find a friend in the world |
| A friend in the world |
| You got one now |
| I grew up in the glass house of a preacher |
| Where every move I ever made was a feature |
| And when you don’t always do what they teach you |
| They always point you out |
| But it’s just like TobyMac used to say |
| «Some people gotta learn the hard way» |
| And when I couldn’t outrun all the things I’d done |
| I picked up the phone and my dad said, «son» |
| When you can’t find a friend in the world |
| A friend in the world |
| Love is reaching down |
| When you can’t find a friend in the world |
| A friend in the world |
| You got one now |
| This is where the story gets crazy |
| And this is the part that’s so amazing |
| You see, the girl I sang about in the first verse |
| Became my wife |
| And there’s one last thing I’d like to mention |
| We owe it all to the Author of redemption! |
| Because He reached her life and He reached my life — |
| And He’s reaching out now take a look around |
| When you can’t find a friend in the world |
| A friend in the world |
| Love is reaching down |
| When you can’t find a friend in the world |
| A friend in the world |
| You got one now |
