A Man I Once Knew Redone
I know this man who cared so dear
Who took the responsibility of another man.
He did not have to,
this is true.
But with a willing heart and a helping hand this man became my friend.
He was there when I needed a hug
Was not afraid to give you that pep talk
While he decided to stay and hang out.
I know he could have walked out.
For this, I am grateful to this day.
then something happened and it was not good.
Years went by and times changed
we went our separate ways .
Been awhile since we have talked
I found out your time was short
If I could help you in any way
I would give you that liver today.
I am just letting you know how much you mean to me
Before your time comes and I miss my opportunity.
