I travelled down a lonely road

Hoping to find a friend

One in whom I could confide

And time with me would spend
可与之共度时光的挚友
Although surrounded by people
生活中有形形色色的人
Not one seemed to even care
但在孤独的人生旅途中
For on that lonely road of life
似乎没有一人关注
No friend could I find there
我是否能找到朋友
Then I joined a friendship club
于是我加入了交友俱乐部
But their own friends they had

They seemed to meet in cliques
并且三三两两成群活动
Which made me feel quite sad
我满怀失落而归
Now I had a different thought

A new direction I would take

By becoming a friend to someone
我要主动成为一个人的朋友

I'm sure a friendship I'd make

Visiting hospitals and nursing homes
在医院和养老院里
I was made so welcome there

Many were longing for a friend

Now I find friends everywhere

By becoming interested in others

Not the interest in you they take
而非等待别人去发现自己
This is the way to show friendship
这样便能传达友善的信号
And many true friendships make
