Best of Friends Lyrics

Some things are different, some the same
Some turn over, some don't change
Time and music all forgive
And in the best of friends the spirit lives

Set in motion by the ages
Crossing notions, makin' waves
Two steps backward and three along
For the best of friends one more song.

The best of friends, the best of friends
For the best of friends one More song
(Repeat) Loud and ringing, high and low
Join the singing, let it flow

To the future from the past
Be the best of friends to the last

The best of friends, the best of friends
Be the best of friends to the last
(Repeat three times)

Come together for the young
For your daughters, for your sons
Raise your voices and lift your hands

Be the best of friends while you can
The best of friends, the best of friends
Be the best of friends while you can

Come together for the young
For your daughters, for your sons
Raise your voices, and lift your hands
Be the best of friends while you can

The best of friends, the best of friends
Be the best of friends... the best of friends!

The best of friends, the best of friends
Be the best of friends while you can

Come together for the young
For your daughters, for your sons
Raise your voices, and lift your hands
Be the best of friends while you can

The best of friends, the best of friends
Be the best of friends... the best of friends!

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.
