[Verse 1]
Telephone call from the breakfast table
What are you having? What are you wearing?
So, your mother's already been on the phone!
No, it's the radio, I'm alone
What are your plans for this lovely day, then?
Oh, I don't know...
So good to have a friend to fall back on
So good to know

[Chorus]
Talking to a friend
Someone who knows you, someone who loves you
Talking to a friend
Someone to run to
Someone I love

[Verse 2]
Leaving the party three in the morning
But didn't want to spend the night alone
You're telling jokes I've heard many times before
But this time you make me laugh even more
How come you always know when I need you?
How come that it's so easy to read you?
This is the way that it always will be
So good to be in your company
[Chorus]
Talking to a friend
Someone who knows you, someone who loves you
Talking to a friend
Someone to run to
Someone I love

Talking to a friend
Someone who knows you, someone who loves you
Talking to a friend
Someone to run to
Someone I love

Talking to a friend
Someone who knows you, someone who loves you
Talking to a friend
Someone to run to
Someone I love
Love
