And I'll pull you through, I will understand..."

I'm a friend."

When you're through with life and all hope is lost,
Hold out your hand cos friends will be friends right till the end"

- Nobody
knows you when you're down and out by Eric Clapton :
"Then I began to fall so low,
Lost all my good friends, I did not have nowhere to go...

When you finally get back up on your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend."
