It may be a phone call late at night That wakes my heart and brings me to my knees It could be the hurt that's in your eyes That shakes my soul from all complacency Oh...I want you to know That I will be the one who prays for you
It may be the presence of your past That haunts your very will to just believe It may seem the weight of all the world Has crushed your dreams and laid them at your feet Oh...I want you to know That I will be a friend to see you through
Chorus: For I will walk the extra mile When the road ahead seems long I will share those lonely silent nights That pass without a song Knowing that the darkness is but for a little while
For you my friend I will walk I will walk the extra mile
It may be the mention of your name That brings a smile into my busy day It could be a place we've been before That Echoes all the tender words you'd say Oh...I want you to know That I have never had a friend like you...like you And though the miles create a distance That keeps us worlds apart There's a road you walk each day That travels through my heart
For you my friend I will walk I will walk the extra mile
