I Can Be Friends With You — текст песни (Petra)

Words and music by Bob Hartman

I can be friends with you
There`s no better friend that a man can know
I can be friends with you
And I feel so special
`Cause it`s you I know

I don`t know the governor
Even though I`m a resident
I don`t rub shoulders with the dignities
Or shake hands with the President

And I know I can be with you
And I don`t have to wait in line
You`re the author and creator of all the world
And a personal friend of mine

When I have a problem
I can always come to You
Regardless of the situation
I know You know what to do
You put Your arm around and speak so tenderly
And I feel better just to know You care
And you took the time for me

Greater love has no man than this
That a man lay his life down for his friend
But You laid down for all the world to see
And You proved Your love for me

I`m no special person
I`ve got nothing to offer You
But You treat me like I`m the only one
With whom you have to do
You`re closer than a brother
And You`re with me every day
I love You `cause You first loved me
And I`m glad that I can say
