I Think I'll Put An Ad In The Paper

I think I'll put an ad in the paper
One that asks for a friend
One that will always be true
One that will be there till the end

I think I'll put an ad in the paper
That says I need a friend
Casual acquaintances need not apply
I want someone there till I die

I think I'll put an ad in the paper
That says I need a confidant
Someone to catch my tears
Someone who will carry my years

I think I'll put an ad in the paper
That says I need a partner
You won't be the only one to comfort
I'll will give you my undieing support

I think I'll put an ad in the paper
That says I need a friend
Not just to get me through now
But one that will show me how
(to make it through this cruel world)

I think I'll put an ad in the paper
I wonder if anyone will reply
I'll end it with true friends apply here
Acquaintances need not apply
