True Friend
miley cyrus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uh huh
That's right!

We sign our cards and letters BFF (uh uh)
You've got a million ways to make me laugh (yeah)
You're looking out for me
You've got my back
It's so good to have you around
You know the secrets I could never tell (uh huh)
And when I'm quiet, you break through my shell
Don't feel the need to do a rebel yell
'Cause you keep my feet on the ground

You're a true friend
You're here till the end
You pull me aside when something ain't right
Talk with me now and into the night
Till it's alright again
You're a true friend

You don't get angry when I change the plans
Somehow you're never out of second chances
Won't say I told you when I'm wrong again
I'm so lucky that I found

You're a true friend
You're here till the end
You pull me aside when something ain't right
Talk with me now and into the night
Till it's alright again

True friends will go to the ends of the earth
Til they find the things you need
Friends hang on through the ups and the downs
'Cause they've got someone to believe in

You're a true friend
You're here till the end
You pull me aside when something ain't right
Talk with me now and into the night
No need to pretend

Oh you're a true friend
You're here till the end
You pull me aside when somethin' ain't right
Talk with me now and into the night
Till it's alright again
You're a true friend




You're a true friend
You're a true friend
