YOU WERE THERE FOR ME

Words escape me 

at this moment 

that seems like the end 

yet it is only the beginning 

when friendships are close 

and dreams are far 

you were there for me.

 

Tears fill me 

with memories of both good and bad 

some nearly forgetton 

yet all dear to the heart 

you were there for me. 

In times of trouble 

and in times of thanks 

you stood by my side 

and held me up. 

Through your ever-patient ears 

to your comforting hugs 

you were there for me. 

From that first day 

when I saw you and knew 

that you would love me for who I was 

you were there for me. 

And until the day 

when we are old and gray 

I will always know that 

you are there for me.
