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 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 for you 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 near to my heart
I’ll always hold your dear

Even when we’re miles apart

Even when you are here

I hope I am to you

Everything you are to me

For the friendship we have is a special one indeed
