Musical Monday: You've Got a Friend

Hey friends!  I know, I've been gone a while... But I'm finally back from Canada!  I had such a great time, and it was so wonderful visiting my best friend and meeting his awesome roommate.  I know it's hard for him to be up there and far away from his family and friends, but we are all so proud of him for everything he's doing to chase his dreams and get his MFA.  So today's Musical Monday is for Joshy.

Since we drove we took Pam's (Josh's mom) old Buick and she had a case of old CDs that we listened to repeatedly-most of which I wasn't really that familiar with.  One of my favorites was Tapestry by Carole King-and this song made me think of Josh an awful lot.

This week's song:

You've Got a Friend

by Carole King

When you're down and troubled and you need some love and care

And nothin', nothin' is going right

Close your eyes and think of me, and soon I will be there

To brighten up even your darkest night

You just call out my name

And you know wherever I am I'll come runnin' to see you again

Winter, Spring, Summer, or Fall

All you have to do is call and I'll be there

You've got a friend

If the sky above you grows dark and full of clouds

And that old North wind begins to blow

Keep your head together and call my name out loud

Soon you'll me knockin' at your door

You just call out my name

And you know wherever I am I'll come runnin' to see you again

Winter, Spring, Summer, or Fall

All you have to do is call and I'll be there

You've got a friend

Now ain't it good to know that you've got a friend when people can be so cold?

They'll hurt you, yes and desert you, and take your soul if you let them

Oh but don't you let them

You just call out my name

And you know wherever I am I'll come runnin' to see you again

Winter, Spring, Summer, or Fall

All you have to do is call and I'll be there

You've got a friend

You've got a friend

Ain't it good to know you've got a friend

Ain't it good to know, ain't it good to know, ain't it good to know

You've got a friend, oh yeah now

You've got a friend, yeah baby

You've got a friend, oh yeah

You've got a friend
