A True Friend
A true friend never walks away.
A true friend will always stay.
A true friend looks out for you.
A true friend will guard your secrets
like a precious gift.
A true friend is there for you,
to give you a helpful lift.
A true friend tries to make you smile,
tries to replace that frown.
They may not always succeed,
but they rarely let you down.
These arms for you are open,
this heart of mine does care.
And when I think you need me,
I'll try to always be there.
I'll listen to your fears,
I promise not to laugh,
comfort your falling tears,
I'll make this friendship last.
I'll keep you close to my heart,
I'll always hold you dear,
even when we're miles apart,
even when you're here.
I hope I am to you
everything you are to me.
For the friendship we have
is a special one indeed.
