My friend,
I am here to stay.
I know you want to be strong,
but around me,
you don't always need to be.
My friend,
I'm not leaving,
for I don't even think
I could if you ask
or if I tried.
Call my name,
and I will answer
the first time
not the second.
Go ahead and cry,
for I will
catch your tear.
Go ahead and laugh,
for I will join you
Go ahead and run,
for I will follow.
Go ahead and fall,
for I will pick you up.

My friend,
I am here to stay.
I know you want to be strong,
but around me,
you don't always need to be.
My friend,
I'm not leaving,
for I don't even think
I could if you ask
or if I tried.
Call my name,
and I will answer
the first time
not the second.
Go ahead and cry,
for I will
catch your tear.
Go ahead and laugh,
for I will join you
Go ahead and run,
for I will follow.
Go ahead and fall,
for I will pick you up.
