A Friend to me

Well you and I, we're buddies

And we've been since we first met.

Me and you, well we've sure been through

Our share of laughter and regret.

Lord knows we've had our bad days,

And more than once we've disagreed.

But you've always been a friend to me.

You can be so stubborn.

There's times I think you just like to fight.

And I hope and pray I live to see a day

When you say I might be right.

And there's times I'd rather kill you

Than listen to your honesty.

But you've always been a friend to me.

You've always been, time and again,

The one to take my hand.

And show to me, that it's okay to be

Just the way I am,

With no apology.

Oh you've always been

And you will 'til God knows when

Yes you've always been a friend . . . to me...
