He's My Friend

I lost my friend just the other day Just like a brother in so many ways I know he’s there waiting ‘round for me And I know one day I’ll see When life got tough, he’d help me through It seemed he always knew just what to do I know no one can ever be Like my friend waiting there for me There’s not too many like this friend of mine Never too busy he’d take the time When everything was wrong and I saw no light He was always there to help me make it right He was my friend, and I miss him so He was my friend, why did he have to go When the sun is shining bright, or on a starry, starry night He’s waiting there for me - he’s my friend.

What a wonderful tribute/write. Many friends come along but not many extra special friends. Sounds like this was an extra special friend. So Sorry. Have a blessed day writing away...........

Thank you Michelle. This was written a few years ago when I lost a good friend, a man who had supported my efforts in my work and in my personal life. Thanks for reading and commenting.
