Time has a way of changing everything
That goes for almost anything but us
Always have and I always will remain
Words from a heart that you can trust
While others come and go
You can always know I'm here for you
Whenever you might need me
Sometimes, if you're lucky
You find that certain someone
You can always count on to be true
If I had the choice of only one friend in this world
You know that I'd want it to be you
You're still sweet as a honeybee
After all these years
You'll always be that funny girl to me
Season to season will always have a reason
It mean to be the best of friends that we can be (that's right)
Someone you can turn to every minute of the day
Warm memories to hold on to that will never fade away
Sometimes, if you're lucky
You find that certain someone
You can always count on to be true
If I had the choice of only one friend in this world
You know that I'd want it to be you
You're like the sweet familiar song
A good book when I'm alone
A cup of coffee when I'm cold
A country road that leads me home
Sometimes, if you're lucky
You find that certain someone
You can always count on to be true
If I had the choice of only one friend in this world
You know that I'd want it to be you
Until I make it home again
I thank God He gave me you
We'll stay the way we were forever true
There's no one in this world that's been a better friend to me
Than you

"Her name is Barbra Streisand. She is 20 years old, she has a three-octave promiscuity of range, she packs more personal dynamic power than anybody I can recall since Libby Holman or Helen Morgan. She can sing as loud as Ethel Merman and as persuasively as Lena or Ella, or as brassy as a Sophie Tucker ... and only Barbra Streisand can turn 'Cry Me a River' into something comparable to Enrico Caruso having his first bash at Pagliacci. When Streisand cries you a river, you got a river, Sam ... and she will be around 50 years from now if good songs are still written to be sung by good singers." — Syndicated columnist Robert Ruark, on her 1963 performances at the Blue Angel.
