I'm sittin' by the tree
With its tiny lights sparkling at me
The fire crackles, snow is falling
As I watch my friends
Back together once again
I hear my heart proclaiming
It's so damn nice to have friends like you
People to sing with, people to dream with
People to simply be with
It's so damn right to have friends like you
People to laugh with, people to care with
Feeling human beings to share with
And I thank God for friends like you
I drove four thousand miles
Just to see my friends, to see their smiles
I'd drive a million more just to be here
I've been out of touch
Oh I've been far away from home too much
Coming back makes it so clear
It's so damn nice to have friends like you
People to sing with, people to dream with
People to simply be with
It's so damn right to have friends like you
People to laugh with, people to care with
Feeling human beings to share with
And I thank God for friends like you
Well there's Stu and there's Rob
There's Sandy and Mary and Matt, Steve and Bob
And all my friends from way back when around me
Well there's Brian and Loren and Stan, Tim and Tom
There's Kathy and Susie and dear Dad and Mom
And all I see who I consider to be my family
It's so damn nice to have friends like you
People to sing with, people to dream with
People to simply be with
It's so damn right to have friends like you
People to laugh with, people to care with
Feeling human beings to share with
And I thank God for friends like you
