Lyrics 2017 London Cast of The Wind in the Willows – A Friend is Still A Friend | New Today Lyrics

Could it be some greater scheme
The universe intends?
As what were once two strangers
Become two lifelong friends

A point of view is aired
A joke or two is shared
You have to be prepared
A friend is still a friend

Your patience may be tried
You take it in your stride
And rally to thеir side
A friend is still a friend

And if hе disappoints you
Or goes out on a limb
You know that a part of you
Will still have time for him

You help him to pull through
You know one thing is true
He’d do the same for you
A friend is still a friend

RATTY
If he has a weakness
Habits that are his
Are they not mere foibles
That make him who he is?

BADGER
Which of us is qualified for casting the first stone?
For none of us are blameless

BADGER & MOLE
We have faults of our own

BADGER
Sometimes we ask a lot

MOLE
Sometimes we lose the plot

Ratty
We know no matter what

ALL
A friend is still a friend

BADGER
And if the skies cave in

RATTY
We’ll take it on the chin

MOLE
Be there through thick and thin

ALL
A friend is still a friend

And if we have a difference
We don’t give up the ghost
What we have in common

BADGER
Is the part which matters most

RATTY & MOLE
The part which matters most

ALL
And as our journeys end
I hope all rifts can mend
On love you can depend
A friend is still a friend

BADGER
On love you can depend

ALL
A friend is still a friend
