I've got a friend. She's different than me.
Says her seeing eye dog does the seeing she needs.
I say "Don't you miss the sun going down?"
She says, "No! Not when I've got friends all around.
Don't go feeling sorry for me
I may be blind but I can see that

(Chorus)
I, I'm gonna be the best that I can
Yes I am, yes I am. Yes.
I, I'm gonna be the best that I can
Yes I am, yes I am.

I've got a friend, moves slower than me
His paralyzed legs won't let him run free.
I say, "Don't you miss running around?"
He says, "No! It's never gonna slow me down.
Don't go feeling sorry for me.
I cannot run, but I can see that

(Chorus)

I've got a friend who's special to know
His mind's not too quick and his speech is slow
I say, "Don't you feel sad when kids put you down?'
He says, "No! Not when I've got love all around.
Don't go feeling sorry for me.
I may be slow but I can see that

(Chorus)
