美國當代福音女王［艾美．葛蘭特］──流行民謠抒情曲──［I Will Be Your Friend／我會是你的朋友］

When every moment gets too hard

End of the road can feel so far

No matter how much time were apart

Im always near you

Ill be the shelter in your rain

Help you to find your smile again

Ill make you laugh at a broken heart

Wherever you are

Cause Im never gonna walk away

If the walls come down someday

All alone and you feel afraid

Ill be there when you call my name

You can always depend on me

I believe until forever ends

I will be your friend

Yeah

I will be your friend

So many people come and go

Nothing can change the you I know

Youll never be just a face in the crowd

And time will show

Through the seasons and the years (and the years)

I will always hold you dear

Never you fear

Im never gonna walk away

If the walls come down someday

All alone and you feel afraid

Ill be there when you call my name

You can always depend on me

I believe until forever ends

I will be your friend

Cause Im never gonna walk away

If the walls come down someday

All alone and you feel afraid

Ill be there when you call my name

You can always depend on me

I believe until forever ends

I will be your friend

Ill be your rock when every candle burns down low

And I want you, and I want you to know

Im never gonna walk away

If the walls come down someday

All alone and you feel afraid

Ill be there when you call my name

You can always depend on me

I believe until forever ends

I will be your friend

Cause Im never gonna walk away

If the walls come down someday

All alone and you feel afraid

Ill be there when you call my name

You can always depend on me

I believe until forever ends

I will be your friend

I will be your friend

I will be your friend

１９９７年９月　３６歲半的美國當代福音女王艾美．葛蘭特（Amy Grant）發行〔Behind the Eyes／眼眸之後〕個人創作大碟

登上Billboard流行專輯榜＃８　成為她在主流市場名次最高的錄音室專輯（１９９７年終＃１８５）

不過在艾美的根基───當代福音專輯榜卻意外只拿到亞軍

〔Behind the Eyes〕樂風轉向更downtempo  更原音樂器走向的軟調搖滾

內容則反應出艾美婚姻生活的掙扎（她在１９９９年離婚）

即使如此　她所寫的歌詞卻仍反應出樂觀的成熟心態

在電台的支持下　讓〔Behind the Eyes〕拿到金唱片（５０萬張＋）

儘管銷售並沒像前兩張流行大碟亮眼（５白金＆２白金）

卻是葛蘭特事業樂評最佳的專輯之一

〔Behind the Eyes〕隔年提名福音音樂協會獎的年度流行／當代專輯

１９９８年　艾美發行專輯第五主打［I Will Be Your Friend／我會是你的朋友］

由Dane DeViller, Sean Hosein, Michelle Lewis合寫

Keith Thomas製作成一首流行民謠抒情曲

在簡潔的樂聲中, 艾美真誠傾訴

［I Will Be Your Friend］登上Billboard副榜──成人抒情榜＃２７

另拿下當代福音雜誌CCM Magazine的基督樂－成人抒情榜＃１０

這是艾美的抒情／當代福音佳作之一
