[Verse 1]

[Barbra Streisand]
Time has a way of changing everything
That goes for almost anything but us

[Willie Nelson]
Always have and I always will remain
Words from a heart that you can trust

[Barbra Streisand]
While others come and go
You can always know
I'm here for you
Whenever you might need me

[Chorus: Barbra Streisand & Willie Nelson]

Sometimes if you're lucky
You'll find that certain someone
You can always count on to be true (to be true)
If I had the choice of only one friend in this world
You know that I'd want to be you

[Verse 2]

[Barbra Streisand]
You're still sweet as a honeybee, after all these years

[Willie Nelson]
And you'll always be that funny girl to me

[Barbra Streisand]
(Aw, thanks Willie)
Season to season we'll always have a reason

[Willie Nelson]
You mean, to be the best of friends that we can be (that's right)

[Willie Nelson]
Someone you can turn to (I'll turn to you)
Every minute of the day

[Barbra Streisand]
Warm memories to hold on to
That will never fade away

[Chorus: Barbra Streisand & Willie Nelson]
Sometimes if you're lucky
You'll find that certain someone
You can always count on to be true (to be true)
If I had the choice of only one friend in this world
You know that I'd want to be you

[Bridge]
[Barbra Streisand]
You're like a sweet familiar song (A good book when I'm alone)
A cup of coffee when I'm cold (A country road that leads me home)

[Chorus: Barbra Streisand & Willie Nelson]
You know that sometimes if you're lucky
You'll find that certain someone
You can always count on to be true
If I had the choice of only one friend in this world
You know that I'd want to be you

[Outro]

[Willie Nelson]
When I get on the road again
You'll be always on my mind

[Barbra Streisand]
We'll stay the way we were forever true

[Barbra Streisand & Willie Nelson]
There's no one in this world that's been
A better friend to me than you

[Barbra Streisand]
Can I ride on your bus sometime, Willie?

[Willie Nelson]
Come on, Barb, let's get on this bus

Barbra Streisand is an Oscar-winning, Tony-winning, Emmy-winning, Golden Globe-winning Broadway legend, film star, movie director and one of the biggest-selling recording artists of all time - a staggering amount of accomplishments for someone whose mother insisted she not to go into show business.

By the time she was sixteen, she’d graduated high school and was living on her own in Manhattan. After winning a talent contest at a gay bar on West 9th Street, Streisand’s ‘spellbinding’ voice quickly became popular at New York clubs and in Broadway shows. After appearances on a number of popular television shows including The Tonight Show, Streisand signed with Columbia Records and released several top 10 albums in the 1960s, scoring two US top 40 hits with “People” and “Second Hand Rose”.

Her success as a recording artist continued through the 1970s with several more gold/platinum-certified albums and four US “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers”, “No More Tears”, the Oscar-winning “The Way We Were”, and the Academy Award-winning “Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star Is Born)”. The 1980s would begin with Streisand’s biggest-selling release of her career Guilty, a collaborative effort with BeeGees member Barry Gibb. It topped the albums chart in several countries and as did its lead single “Woman In Love”.
