From the recording Great Blue Heron

Lyrics

I remember bein' low
In a tight spot, or missin' home
There were times along the way
I couldn't convince myself to say
The right words or remember
The reasons behind it all

But each time things got low
A hand reached out
A hand to hold

It took a good friend
To pull me out again
Out of the darkness
And into the light

It took a good friend
To pull me out again
Out of the darkness
And into the light

So if someone comes to mind
When you listen to this song
The kind that's hard to find
The ones who helped you along
If someone comes to mind
When you listen to this song
Thank God we don't go through this life alone

It took a good friend
To pull me out again
Out of the darkness
And into the light

It took a good friend (woah)
To pull me out again (woah)
Out of the darkness (woah)
And into the light

(woah)
(woah)
(woah)

And I don't mean the ones only here for a good time
And I don't mean the ones who only take something away
And I don't mean the ones only here for a good time
And I don't mean the ones only there to make a trade
And I don't mean the ones only here for a good time
And I don't mean the ones who only take something away
And I don't mean the ones only here for a good time
And I don't mean the ones only there to make a trade
