[Verse 1]
You've seen me naked in more ways than one
You've seen me done up, seen me come undone
We've cried in the darkness, we've laughed in the sun
We've been forever, yet we've just begun

[Chorus]
We've come full circle, all the way 'round
Through the good times, the bad times, through life's ups and downs
Still we've stayed together through thick and through thin
Yes, we've come full circle
Thank God, we're still friends

[Verse 2]
You know the soft spots under my skin
Deep down inside me, where no one has been
And we've sailed troubled waters, we've soared on the wind
But time's only sweetened this love that we're in

[Chorus]
We've come full circle, all the way 'round
Through the good times, the bad times, through life's ups and downs
Still we've stayed together through thick and through thin
Yes, we've come full circle
Thank God, we're still friends

[Verse 3]
We've cried in the darkness, laughed in the sun
We've come full circle and we've just begun
We've come full circle, we've been all the way 'round
We've come full circle, we've been all the way 'round
You know we've cried in the darkness, and we've laughed in the sun
We've stayed together, and we've just begun

[Outro]
We've come full circle, we've been all the way 'round
I'm so glad you're still my friend
We've come full circle, and I'd do it all again

Dolly Parton

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, best known for her work in country music

Beginning her career as a child performer, Parton issued a few modestly successful singles from 1959 through the mid-1960s, showcasing her distinctive soprano voice. She came to greater prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner’s weekly television program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton’s “The Last Thing on My Mind”, was a top-ten hit on the country singles charts, and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, Parton’s 1977 single “Here You Come Again” was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit 9 to 5" (from the film of the same name), and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers “Islands in the Stream”, both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, Parton returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings
