I wrote you a song
I've penned a few words
The sentiment's basic

If a little absurd
I know you're like me
Always wanted a song

So here it is
Sorry it took me so long


This song is for you
To sing or to play
I hope that it brightens

Your dreariest day
Because I'm your friend
Or I just want to say 'hi'

Or you seem a bit off
Delete what doesn't apply


I'm sorry you're ill
I'm glad that you're well
You've lost or gained weight

But I really can't tell
I wish we could talk more
But what would we say

Elton sang it first
But not to you, I'm afraid


This song is for you
To sing or to play
I hope that it brightens

Your dreariest day
Because I'm your friend
Or I just want to say 'hi'

Or you seem a bit off
Delete what doesn't apply


So you say your heart is broken, tell me it's not true
Well I've got a defibrillator, or a pot of superglue


You're one in a million
But you haven't a clue
I hope you know who you are

'Cos the lyrics ring true
I wrote you this song
Won't you sing it with me?

It's not very hard
Try it and see


This song is for you
To sing or to play
I hope that it brightens

Your dreariest day
Because I'm your friend
Or I just want to say 'hi'

Or you seem a bit off
Delete what doesn't apply


This song is for you
I hope that you learn it
However you want

'Cos in my eyes you've earned it
Because I'm your friend
And I just want to say 'hi'

And if you're feeling down
I don't need to know why.
I don't need to know why.
