Best Friend - Remastered 2015 - Roy Orbison

La, la, la, la, la

An old man on his death bed whispered to me

You are the master of your destiny

A diamond is a diamond, a stone, a stone

But a man? s not all good nor all bad

Call them as you see them

You? ll stand alone

You? re the best friend that you ever had, ohh, yeah

You? re the best friend that you ever had

So, laugh when it? s time to laugh

Cry when it? s time to cry

Live while it? s time to live

You? ll die when it? s time to die

La, la, la, la, la, la

Then he closed his eyes and left me alone

My old friend? s death brought his wisdom home

A diamond is a diamond, a stone, a stone

But a man? s not all good nor all bad

Call them as you see them

You? ll stand alone

You? re the best friend that you ever had, ohh, yeah

You? re the best friend that you ever had

So, laugh when it? s time to laugh

Cry when it? s time to cry

Live while it? s time to live

You? ll die when it? s time to die

La, la, la, la, la, la
