Sylvie Vartan Friends in need are friends indeed

Sylvie Vartan "Friends in need are friends indeed" 1965
Friends in need are friends indeed
« C'est quand on est dans le besoin que l'on reconnaît ses vrais amis »

The friend that stood by me when times were bad
Is the very best friend that I’ve ever had
He taught me how to smile when I felt so low
All he did for me, you could never know.
Now happiness is here, but I must make just one thing clear
He’s going to share my happy days with me
Cause friends in need are friends indeed
It’s him who took my side
When all my friends had gone
It’s him that didn’t care what people said
I would comfort me so that I forgot
And now he’s always here, always near to me
And we walk together for the world to see
Cause hand in hand like friends we both travel by
All the heartaches are solved, all the tears are dry
And will go on and on
And when he’s sad I’ll make him smile
He’s going to share my happy days with me
Cause friends in need are friends indeed
And we’ll go on and on
And when he’s sad I’ll make him smile
He’s going to share my happy days with me
Cause friends in need are friends indeed
It’s him that took my side
When all my friends had gone (x2)
