My Friend That I Had

I could have sworn he was there,
my friend in white,
He floated in the darkness,
all through the night.

But when I'd awake he would not be near,
and all I could do was shed a tear.
I could have cried forever,
but something stopped me.

It was the voice in the wind
that was calling my name.
I ran outside and he was there.
As I waved goodbye,
I closed my eyes tight
and blew him a kiss with all my might.

The pain is still here and forever it will be,
for my friend was very dear to me.
He's in my heart and that's where he'll stay.

Oh, how I wish you were here,
my friend that I had.
