We’ll be good friends forever
We’ll be good friends forever
Things can change like the weather
But we’ll be good friends forever
Even when we grow up and we go from
place to place
If I’ll just close my eyes I know l’ll see your smiling face
l’ll remember how we taught ourselves to ride
a bike
And my favorite colors will be all the ones
we like
We’ll be good friends forever
We’ll be good friends forever
Things can change like the weather
But we’ll be good friends forever
We’ll be good friends forever
We’ll be good friends forever
Things can change like the weather
But we’ll be good friends forever
When I’m at the beach I know I’ll always think of you
No one builds great castles in the sand
the way we do
How can we forget the snowman that we made this year
Frosty never looked so good as he was
standing here
We’ll be good friends forever
We’ll be good friends forever
Things can change like the weather
But we’ll be good friends forever
We’ll be good friends forever
We’ll be good friends forever
Things can change like the weather
But we’ll be good friends forever
There’s so much for us to see I know we’re
gonna see
There’s so much for us to be I know we’re
gonna be
And it’s so nice to know you’ll always be
here in my heart
Childhood friends may move on but they
never really part
We’ll be good friends forever
We’ll be good friends forever
Things can change like the weather
But we’ll be good friends forever
We’ll be good friends forever
We’ll be good friends forever
Things can change like the weather
But we’ll be good friends forever
