A True Friend

A true friend never walks away A true will always stay A true friend looks out for you A true friend will guard your secrets Like a precious gift A true friend is there for you To give you a helpful lift A true friend tries to make you smile Tries to replace that frown They may not always succeed But they rarely let you down These arms for you are open This heart for you does care And when I think you need me I'll try to always be there I'll listen to your fears I promise not to laugh Comfort your falling tears I'll make this friendship last I'll keep you near to my heart I'll always hold you dear Even when we're miles apart Even when you're here I hope I am to you Everything you are to me For the friendship we have Is a special one indeed.
