after so many years
it is still to you I turn -
you have called me friend
through thick and thin


on hearing of a movie,
you know I'd love,
you call me straight away
and choose to be my date.


if things get rough
and I'm in a state
of emergency
your the one who's around to pick me up.


when a friend is needed
if "he's" been cruel,
once again,
it is you I'll always call -

you'll have wise words to say
to mend my aching heart,
adding crows feet to my face
from making me laugh.


all those years ago when it was you
I chose to love,
another girl had captured your heart.

I'm grateful of that decision
you made for us,
as you have grown to be my closest friend,
each others to who we'll always turn,
thus developing a life-long kind of love -
