[Spoken Intro: Bobby Brown & Debra Winans]
Debbie, you know, I really treasure your friendship
And I really treasure yours, Bob
You know, good friendships are hard to find these days, in the '90s
Yes, they are
I'm glad I got a friend in you
Hey, and I'll be there
And did you know, Bobby, a friend sticks closer than a brother?
Yeah Debbie, and that's what I call a true friendship
Well, can we sing about this?
Let's do it
I'd love to
[Verse 1: Bobby Brown & Debra Winans]
I promise to stay through the rain
And I told you I'd stick close through the pain
Didn't I say
I promise to go the extra mile
And when you're feeling sad will volunteer the smile

'Cause I'm your friend (Friend)
And I'm there, just say when
Yes, I'm your friend (Friend)
And I will love you 'til the end
[Verse 2: Bobby Brown & Debra Winans]
Now even though they'll be times we won't agree
But the love we share I know will always be
I will tell you when right, and yes, when wrong (Yes, when wrong)
'Cause it's the truth I love and always take along
[Chorus: Bobby Brown, Debra Winans, Both]
'Cause I'm your friend (I'm your friend)
