Lyrics Translation

Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you, my friend, will see
You've got a friend in me
(You've got a friend in me)

Ben you're always running here and there (here and there)
You feel you're not wanted anywhere (anywhere)
If you ever look behind
And don't like what you find
There's something you should know
You've got a place to go
(You've got a place to go)

I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
(I used to say "I" and "me")
(Now it's "us", now it's "we")

Ben most people would turn you away (turn you away)
I don't listen to a word they say (a word they say)
They don't see you as I do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben
(A friend)
Like Ben
(Like Ben)
Like Ben

You feel you're not wanted anywhere (anywhere)

[Zwrotka 1]
Ben, nie musimy już dłużej szukać naszej dwójki

Z przyjacielem, którego mogę nazwać swoim
Nigdy nie będę sam
A ty, mój przyjacielu, zobaczysz
Jestem Twoim przyjacielem
(Jestem Twoim przyjacielem)

[Zwrotka 2]
Ben, zawsze biegasz tu i tam
(Tu i tam)
Czujesz, że nigdzie nie jesteś potrzebny

I nie podoba ci się to, co znajdziesz
Jest coś, co powinieneś wiedzieć
Masz dokąd pójść
(Masz dokąd pójść)

[Most]
Zwykłem mówić „ja” i „ja”
Teraz to „my”, teraz to „my”
(Kiedyś mówiłem „ja” i „ja”)

[Zwrotka 3]
Ben, większość ludzi by cię odrzuciła (odrzuciła cię)
Nie słucham ani słowa, które mówią (Słowa, które mówią)

Gdyby mieli takiego przyjaciela jak Ben

[Zakończenie]
(Przyjaciel)
Jak Ben
(Jak Ben)
Jak Ben
