Ballad of a Friend

Friends are forever,
Friends for all time,
Friends without reason,
Friends without rhyme.
Friends throughout laughter,
Friends throughout tears.
Friends throughout hopes and
Friends throughout fears.
Friends are there when the going gets tough,
Friends are there when life treats you rough.
Friends know what to say when everything's wrong,
A Friends words are as precious as a song.
A shoulder to cry on and an ear to listen,
Two arms to hug you and a house to live in.
They reach out a hand when you need one to hold,
They warm your heart, never let it get cold.
The one person you can tell everything to,
and trust that they won't turn their back on you.
I'm there for you,
You're there for me,
As we stand together,
There's nothing we can't beat.
The world that we'll conquer,
The things that we'll see,
The places we'll go,
And the people we'll be.
Together forever, just me and you,
We are the proof good things come in twos.
