Remember when we used to talk all night?
We didn't get much sleep
Talking love and planning out our lives
And who we're going to be
Things were so much different then
And life has changed so much, my friend
But you and I will always believe
'cause we'll be
You'll see
We'll be
We'll be friends forever
We'll be
You'll see
We'll be like Thelma and Louise
We'll be
(Yeah yeah)
You'll see
(A ha)
We'll be friends forever
(Friends forever, friends forever)
I know that he's been hurting you
I've known for a while
And now you've found love in someone new
I can see it in your smile
I swear your secret's safe with me
Won't tell nobody what I've seen
What you need is perfect trust in me
'cause we'll be
You'll see
We'll be
We'll be friends forever
We'll be
(You're not alone)
You'll see
We'll be like Thelma and Louise
We'll be
(Yeah yeah)
You'll see
(A ha)
We'll be friends forever
(Friends forever)
We all need somebody we can trust
A friend of our own
(A-ha)
I swear your secret's safe with me
(Yeah)
You're not alone
Together forever
You can depend
(You can depend)
Together we will fight
To the end
(Ah yeah)
'cause we'll be
(Yeah yeah)
You'll see
(Ever)
We'll be friends forever
We'll be
(You're not alone)
You'll see
We'll be like Thelma and Louise
(No no no no)
We'll be
You'll see
We'll be friends forever
(Oh)

(Yeah)
Like Thelma and Louise
(Ooh ooh ooh)
We'll be, you'll see
We'll be friends forever
