My Best Friend

Constant as the dawning day
Gentle as the breeze that blows
Pure as snow that's freshly fallen
Beautiful as a summer rose

Breathtaking as a rainbow
That spreads across the sky
Yet humble as the sparrow
Where rests God's watchful eye

Lovely as the fragile lily
And the stars that fill the night
Graceful as a butterfly
That spreads it's wings in flight

Peaceful as a forrest stream
Harmless as a dove
This can only begin to describe
The girl I truly love

She's more than I imagined
More than I ever hoped to find
More beautiful as days go by
She's always on my mind

She's my best friend, my angel
The one that I adore
I'd refuse the world ten times over
For I could not ask for more

I love her more than life itself
She's my every dream come true
She makes me smile when I'm sad
Cheers me up when I feel blue

I could go on forever
Through every night and day
And say how much I love her
In every eloquent way

But truth can be found in silence
And so long as we're apart
When you wonder how much I love you
Just listen for my heart
