MY BEST FRIEND

The summer we met how could I have known,
I saw you that first time standing alone;
I was new to the crowd and a little bit scared,
I needed a friend who really cared.

I don't know how it happened,
you were suddenly my best friend;
I sat and listened to you cry,
Your broken heart I tried to mend.

You told me about the girl you loved,
I told you be patient to look up above;
I said to trust God to really pray,
You said that you had, so I prayed everyday.

I asked God to guide you and help you to see,
I told you, you could always depend on me;
You got what you wanted but she doesn't treat you right,
You both argue and she always starts a fight.

You are my best friend and I hate to see you cry,
I try to hide my feelings believe me I try,
I know I'll never measure up to what you see in her;
she's the luckiest girl I've ever known,
But just know you're never on your own,
I love you, my best friend.
