I'd like to be the sort of friend,
that you have been to me.
I'd like to be the help,
that you're always glad to be.
...
I love you like I love a day,
when everything goes right.
I love you like I love to lay,
and watch the stars at night.
...
I don't think you will,
ever fully understand,
how you touched my life,
and made who I am.
...
Feelings that once were hidden,
are now expressed to you.
Days that once were stormy,
are now the brightest blue.
...
I never had a friend,
like you before.
You're a friend like no other,
someone I always hoped for.
...
My children mean the world to me,
as you can plainly see.
God gave them to me from above,
so forever and for always to them I give my love.
...
Although you are a friend of mine,
and letters we exchange.
I wouldn't know you on the street,
and doesn't that seem strange?
...
This treasure of love,
I cherish within my soul,
how much I love you...
you'll never really know.
...
We met upon the internet,
my heart you did not have yet.
I sit and wait each day,
for the song my heart will soon play.
...
You see the pain that lies in her eyes,
But, alas, her eyes are dry.
You see the anger that burns from her gaze,
The madness that sets her eyes ablaze.
...
Just saying I'm sorry,
is not all it takes,
No magical words,
to make gone my mistakes.
...
When you're away,
my heart misses you.
My dearest friend,
I long to talk to.
...
If there's only one face I long to see,
so beautiful, so true.
One smile that makes a difference,
with everything I do.
...
I closed the door to my heart,
and wouldn't let anyone in.
I had trusted and loved only to be hurt,
but that would never happen again.
...
I have no regrets,
the day I met you.
A heart once broken,
now mended by you.
...
Though my heart longs to see you,
I can tell it isn't time.
But give me some credit,
wanting to's not a crime.
...
Take my hand this way we'll go,
said God up above.
I'll take you to a place of joy,
where you will find true love.
...
Love is the greatest feeling,
Love is like a play,
Love is what I feel for you,
Each and everyday.
...
The Friend I Want To Be
I'd like to be the sort of friend,
that you have been to me.
I'd like to be the help,
that you're always glad to be.
I'd like to mean as much to you,
each minute of the day.
As you have meant, my friend of mine,
to me along the way.
I'd like to do the big things,
and splendid things for you.
To brush the gray from out your skies,
and leave them only blue;
I'd like to say the kind of things,
that so often I have heard.
And feel that I could rouse your soul,
the way that mine you've stirred.
I'd like to give you back the joy,
that you have given me.
Yet wishing you a need,
I hope will never be.
I'd like to make you feel as rich,
as I who travel on,
Undaunted in the darkest hours,
with you to lean upon.
I'm wishing that at this time,
that I could but repay,
A portion of the gladness,
you've strewn along my way.
And could I have one wish this year,
this only would it be,
I'd like to be the sort of friend,
that you have been to me.
