[Verse]
You can count your friends
On the fingers of your hand
If you're lucky, you have two
I have just two friends
That is all that I demand
Only two, just me and you
And a good friend heeds a friend
When a good friend needs a friend
Can't you do a friend a favor?
Can't you fall in love with me?
Life alone can lose its flavor
You could make it sweet, you see!
I'm the dish you ought to savor
Something warm and something new;
I could do my friend a favor
I could fall in love with you
Can't you do a friend a favor?
Let us part the way we meet
Life with you would have a flavor
Sweet at times, yet bittersweet
I'm no dish you ought to savor
Feast your eye on something new
I will do my friend a favor:
I'll be just a friend to you
