The Friendship Song Lyrics

I want to be the smile
I want to see the change
I want to be your friend from the start
And once it starts, it never ends
I want to be your pal, I want to be around
I want to be your friend when you are down
I want to be the sunshine
On your smiling face

I want to be the moon
No, I want to be ocean
Where all we do is float under the sun
On the rolling sea
Oh, I want to be the sunshine
No, I want to be the moonshine
I want to be the night time lullaby
When you're so afraid

And I think I found a way
To put a smile on your lonely face
I think I found a way
A way to break down all the walls
I think I found a way to say
I think I found a way to say hello
I think I found a way
Without saying anything at all

And I think I found a way
To put a smile on your lonely face
I think I found a way
A way to break down all the walls
I think I found a way to say
I think I found a way to say hello
I think I found a way
Without saying anything at all

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
