Friend
Thoughts about you I have constantly
Soft, gentle, …evenly
No day will rise to greet the sun
Where I won't recall…
Where our thoughts are one
No day will come to a closing end
Where I don't cherish you
Where I do not depend
No night covers the sky
Where I don't think how do I get by
Without you
Nothing seems true
No night will fade away
Where I don't want to say
My Friend, I love you and I need you so
Please always be with me, please don't ever go
Without you I'm nothing more
Than a fish, stranded here on shore
A flower without the sun
I'm so glad that our friendship has begun
