....I heard you say

We started off hand in hand

along the rosy way,

Across the seas, along the sand

and then I heard you say,

My friend you are so dear to me

you're like my very soul,

with you I shall always be

to realise your every goal.

Soon the way got long and hard

rough winds began to blow,

Each step was like crossing a yard

and I felt you letting go.

As skies turned more dark and gray,

I thought that i would fall,

hurt that you left me in frey,

when i needed you most of all.

A broken spirit , as I gave way

a hand reached out to me,

bringing laughter, light and joy

to set my spirit free.

Drawing me out to sunshine

to the dawn of a whole new day

to all the things lovely and fine,

and then I heard you say,

My friend you are so dear to me,

you are my very soul,

and with you I shall always be,

to realise your every goal......
