Friends - Bridge Over Troubled Waters

If, in turning left instead of right You find your path uneven, and Need to stop and change your plan A comfort you can count on , a Friend to help in any way he can "I'm here for you" a steadfast rudder Sailing on both calm or stormy days Right now and in the days to come Behind you each step along the way A constant as the years turn round, to Bridge the span 'tween smiles and tears Over our life's hurdles big or small Troubled not by time or distance Water cleansing when hurts befall I sit thoughtful of promises given Will we keep our special bond intact Ease the doubt that darkness brings Your friends are there in good and bad Mind them more than the gold of kings
