But until that day comes Until that time arrives I will always carry your photo At my side
And I will tell all I know About the friendship you gave me And what a powerful person you are You were the one who saved me
Saved me from myself And the coldness of the outer world Broke the shell I was in Made me an open girl
Not even a girl, but a woman Who found comfort in herself You always told me I was like no one else
And that made me feel special Like I was one of a kind You said a jewel like me Was so rare and fine
I felt beautiful Like I really was worth something And I send my warmest gratitude When I pray for you every morning
