Sometimes it’s hard to write the words
That you, my dear, should see.
Or say the things that you need to hear,
Or be as I should be.

Have you ever found a friend
That makes your heart glow
Someone who is wonderful
You feel honored to know

As I went about my daily routine
a thought came to mind:
You’ve always been a support to me;
something so hard to find.

Be a friend. You don’t need money:
Just a disposition sunny;
Just the wish to help another
Get along some way or other;
Just a kindly hand extended
Out to one who’s unbefriended;

If I had to pick but one thing
To take across the sea
I think I’d pick a good friend
To go along with me

Someone who concerned with every thing you do,
Someone to call upon during good and bad times,
Someone who understands whatever you do,

1. Open Up.
Be honest, open and candid (tempered with kindness).
2. Stand Up.
For your friends, whether they are there or not.

Let’s always be
the kind of friends we are today.
Let’s always be there
for each other, no matter what.

I GIVE TO YOU
A fire to light inside your heart,
to feel the warm embers glow.
A piece of the sun’s warm rays,
to bask in it’s fiery show.

When troubles come your soul to try
You love the friend who just stands by.
Perhaps there’s nothing he or she can do
The thing is strictly up to you.
