To me this seems to be someone who just has someone who will be there for them, always. He seems to be singing in this verse to someone:
The girl you love has gone away
Still too young to know her heart
She'll return her love renewed
'Cause she'll never find a friend like you
i think he's saying that his friend's gf/ lover has left him but if he stays a friend and stays beside her as a friend, she will find her heart and see that the best lover is a friend.
