Will You Marry Me My Lady?
A good friend...
Is expensive than the diamond
Is precious than the Gold
Is worth having and emulating
A good colleague...
Lends a helpimg hand when in trouble
Puts one through when necessary
Works with one so that success will be acheived
A good neighbour...
Knows and helps when one is sick
Is never jealous of ones success
Rejoices with one when it's time
Mourns with one in sorrow
But a good wife...
Is the best of all
Will You Marry Me My Lady?

Adieu?
It’s time to say adieu, friend
It’s time to part our ways
It may not be final goodbye yet
We might see each other again, who knows, somewhere.
All the shared moments with you
All those laughter and tears we together had had
All the sorrows and relief we experienced
Will never be forgotten, I promise.
I’ll always remember you as one good friend
A friend who’s always patient and kind
A friend who’s there to reach out to and lend a hand
A friend so dear, who needs me and whom I need as much.

A translation is no translation, he said, unless it will give you the music of a poem along with the words of it.

Frinds Just Seem To Know
Friends always make me smile
They brighten up my day
They have that special magic
To chase the blues away
The road of life is long
We can’t all be strong
But in times when we feel weak
The comfort of a friend we seek
If your friend is true
They’ll never turn you away
They’ll stand right beside you
Any time of any day
A friend just seems to know
When you have a troubled mind
For you they’ll always give
Any amount of time
A friend just seems to know
When to be a friend
They’ll always reach out for you
With a helping hand to lend

The Japanese version comes with a translation, but that's different from the lyrics, so people could look things up and find a translation of their own if they're interested.

Friends are for Nothing
Hey friend?
Yes friend?
I’ve been meaning to say friend.
What is it friend?
Friend, I’ve been doing a lot of nothing.
Yea, that’s what I’ve been doing too.
It’s so useless friend, the whole time I do nothing.
I just think about what I could do, friend.
Yea I think about who I should be with, friend.
Maybe…
What is it friend?
Maybe we should do nothing together, friend.
Yeah, that actually makes nothing sound like fun.
I feel the same way, friend.
Hey friend?
Yea friend?
Thanks friend.

For the version of this CD released in Japan, a translation of the English lyrics is included, but there are lots of places where meanings are lost in the process of translation.

Your friend lends and your enemy asks for payment.
He that lends money to a friend has a double loss.
Who My Friend Is
My friend is me
I am my friend
My friend is my rock, refuge and strength
Oh yea, my friend give strengths back to my weaknesses.
With my friend I can be me
My friend is the hand that leads me on
In the dark, my friend is my light
My shelter from the rain
My umbrella from the scorching sun
Oh yea, my friend is my guardian angel
My friend is a friend who makes me desire to be a child once again
I laugh, I cry.I shout, i scream with my friend beside me
My friend is cross-your-heart-and-hope-
To-die friend.
My friend kiss out the pain from my heart when am hurt
And reach down deeper to kiss my soul with love.
Absolute, best is my friend.

No Tears In heaven
To All My Friends Relatives Gone before me and who will go after me....
No Tears In Heaven!
A friend is someone who lends a helping hand,
With a friendship to last forever in this earthly land
They will be friends forever and may not end up together,
With precious memories that will last forever and ever.
A friend is not a maid, a servant, a distant past, certainly not!
They hold a piece of you in their hearts and its forget me not.
Brightens up your deepest darkest hour... day by day
Shares your smile, your victory, in many a glorious way,
Words to describe, i certainly find it hard and its sad
But i am grateful, friends have i, when my times are bad.
And when the curtain falls the journey bravely we will carry on
Wondering.. Will you know my name if I saw you in heaven?

When Hopes Are Gone!
A friend shares your laughter and tears...
Lends a helping hand to lessen fears
Friends such, lives on in the heart forever,
...Though they may not end up, together,
Memories of a true friendship will not die,
Their brightest smile will keep it alive.
Holding a special piece of your heart.
Decades distance can never tear it apart.
The tender words that escape their lips.
Flows effortlessly, gently, its at their finger tips
Memories evergreen and oh so constantly lives on..
A strength to move when all hopes are gone..
Nothing seems to be for you and a heartache brings
The voice of a friend in your heart will musically sing! ! -

She ain't showin me no sympathy
