— Me
That Kind of Friend
That kind of friend
Is the right kind of friend
For me, for me
Cause that kind of friend
Happens to be all a friend can be
Some friends come along
For a brief moment
Touch my life
Then they are gone
Other friends find a place
In my heart
Where they will stay
No matter what
But the truest friends
That i can find
Are the friends who are truly
One of a kind
That kind of friend
Is the right kind of friend
For me, for me
Cause that kind of friend
Happens to be all a friend can be
All a friend can be
These are the friends
Who I believe in
And they believe in me
So no matter what comes
They will let me see
That the only thing I need to be
Is me
And that is good enough for them
That kind of friend
Is the right kind of friend
For me, for me
Cause that kind of friend
Happens to be all a friend can be
All a friend can be
A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity. - Proverbs 17:17
The River of Dreams
Sometimes
Many times
The most beautiful love
The most innocent love
That flows through
Our dreams
We let
Pass us by
Keeps passing us by
Slips away
Down the river of dreams
I love you
Don't know how you
Could ever love me
I still can't believe
The way I feel
When you walk in the room
It's the same story
A story with no beginning
So no end
A fairy tale for me
So real
So I close my eyes
Drift down
The river of dreams
To a place where
You know my love
All the endings are happy
With you
In the river of dreams
My Best Friend
Every breath I take
you are there
Walking alongside me
Showing me you care
You make sure
I don’t fall
Over what I can’t see
You know me real well
You‘re my best friend
My best friend
You‘re one of a kind
You’re my best friend
My Best Friend
We’ve been through a lot
You and I
We’ve had some laughs
There’s time we cried
But no matter what
May come our way
We can always say
You‘re my best friend
My best friend
You‘re one of a kind
You’re my best friend
My Best Friend
Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil.- Ecclesiastes 4:9
A Friendship
How do sum up our friendship
In a few simple lines
It‘s so hard to do
It really takes some time
Cause your friendship is not
Something easily defined
By mere words on a page
Your friendship
It’s a heartfelt joy
When you are around
It is a love
which holds no bounds
It is a lifting up
In times you’re down
It is a great celebration
When good times abound
True friendship
Is built over time
it carries you along
For a lifetime
A Friendship
We all need a friendship
To hold us
To lift us
To give us
When life threatens
To sink us
A friendship that will never fail us
A friendship which offers comfort
As each new day dawns
A friendship which offers courage
Through the darkest times
A friendship filled with wisdom and caring
A friendship which is ageless and enduring
A friendship passed from heart to heart
This is true friendship
In this ever darkening world
Friendship is the light
That shines through
The darkest times
A friendship to touch your heart
A friendship two or more can share
A friendship that will not depart
We all need a friend like that
A friend like you
