You've got a friend (James Taylor & Carole King)

Music with "you are" in the title or lyrics.

When you're down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, whoa nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights.

You just call out my name,
And you know whereever I am
I'll come running, oh yeah baby
To see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You've got a friend.

If the sky above you
Should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
And soon I will be knocking upon your door.
You just call out my name and you know where ever I am
I'll come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?
People can be so cold.
They'll hurt you and desert you.
Well they'll take your soul if you let them.
Oh yeah, but don't you let them.

You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again.
Oh babe, dont you know that,
Winter spring summer or fall,
Hey now, all you've got to do is call.
Lord, I'll be there, yes I will.
You've got a friend.
You've got a friend.
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.
You've got a friend.

Well, sweetheart, I was born exactly in 1950 and it was as you said.. although I wasn't screaming for the Beatles as I didn't realize what a revolution they were at the time. But there were so many wonderful artists and groups and songs coming out-one after the other- that it was almost taken for granted.

It lasted I would say until the mid-seventies and then it seemed to change. There was good music after- but not the excitement nor freshness of the sixties.

this song brings up a memory of a camper who was female who was in a wheelchair and had chronic illnesses nor was she able to read or write because of her vision, and she died in 1991 from complications of her illness, Meggan Eiben was her name, RIP.
