Leave it to my very best friend, To slap the silliness right out of me. And with a few all knowing words, Bring me right back down to reality. I always heed her words of advice. She has a better perspective than me. And she pulls me back just a little, When I stand too close and can't see. And she offers a clear reminder, Of the path that I pledged to take, And to her I am forever grateful. For saving me so much heartbreak. She lifts me up so that I can see, The bigger picture from up above. And with that view I remember, I'm not ready to fall in love. She says there is a long road ahead, With opportunities galore. And I better not ever settle again! Unless I am very sure! To take my time, there is no rush, Just have fun along the way! And always give a hundred percent, And the time will be right one day!

Leave it to my very best friend, To slap the silliness right out of me. And with a few all knowing words, Bring me right back down to reality. I always heed her words of advice. She has a better perspective than me. And she pulls me back just a little, When I stand too close and can't see. And she offers a clear reminder, Of the path that I pledged to take, And to her I am forever grateful. For saving me so much heartbreak. She lifts me up so that I can see, The bigger picture from up above. And with that view I remember, I'm not ready to fall in love. She says there is a long road ahead, With opportunities galore. And I better not ever settle again! Unless I am very sure! To take my time, there is no rush, Just have fun along the way! And always give a hundred percent, And the time will be right one day!
