a FRIEND

«««««A FRIEND»»»»»

If one day you feel like crying...

Call me.

I don't promise that I will make you laugh,

But I can cry with you.

If one day you want to run away--

Don't be afraid to call me.



I don't promise to ask you to stop...

But I can run with you.

If one day you don't want to listen to anyone...

Call me.

I promise to be there for you.

And I promise to be very quiet.

But if one day you call...

And there is no answer...

Come fast to see me.

Perhaps I need you.

Friend is a word that I don't throw around

Though it's used and abused, I still like the sound.

I save it for people who've done right by me

And I hope I can count on, if ever need be.
