Petra - I Can Be Friends With You Lyrics
I can be friends with you
There's no better friend that a man can know
I can be friends with you
And I feel so special
'Cause it's you I know
I don't know the governor
Even though I'm a resident
I don't rub shoulders with the dignities
Or shake hands with the President
And I know I can be with you
And I don't have to wait in line
You're the author and creator of all the world
And a personal friend of mine
I can always come to You
Regardless of the situation
I know You know what to do
You put Your arm around and speak so tenderly
And I feel better just to know You care
And you took the time for me
Greater love has no man than this
That a man lay his life down for his friend
But You laid down for all the world to see
And You proved Your love for me
I'm no special person
I've got nothing to offer You
But You treat me like I'm the only one
With whom you have to do
You're closer than a brother
And You're with me every day
I love You 'cause You first loved me
And I'm glad that I can say

Petra I Can Be Friends With You Comments
me and a friend called a girl we liked and played part of this song on her answering machine --- funny and so lame, but I wish I could go back to those days.....
I am partial to MxPx's cover too as they were one of my favorite bands in the last couple of decades. I don't think MxPx would be caught dead covering Petra these days! haha
:( one should take pride in covering them ... pick one that really doesn't have a time base feeling
there are several
Yeah, a very 70s vibe. (The music world changed radically soon after this disc was released). In retrospect, I hear a tip of the hat to Boston's "Let me take you home". All these years later, I find myself really amazed at Volz vocals... man, that guy could soar!
+Will Kozushko Will your right on the Boston thing I didn't pick that out.
this is the artistic context of the song, c.f. Triple MVP legend's comment, a product of 70's sound
I don't hear Boston; certainly not "Let Me Take You Home Tonight". Looking at all their album art leaves no doubt about the influence of Boston, though. They must have been Boston fans.
Will Kozushko I hear it too.
maybe, but the song was a product of the sound of the 70's groups, period!
This song was one of my favorites by petra,I really like the tune of this song..
This earlier stuff kinda also makes me feel a little skynyrd influence? what do you guys think
I don't know about you, but doesn't this song remind you a little of Pink Floyd?
After hearing this song, I can see why MxPx felt like it needed the "punk rock" treatment.
MxPX cover is fun too. :)
