Thai Friends

Eight years of staying in a far away land
        Looking for a greener pasture in the country of Thailand
                    Meeting people whom I call a friend
                              To be with them and my love extend

                                                                They are so loving and trusting
                                                     Help you if they can till the end
                                         Show gratefulness like a sister/brother
                           Enjoy each other's company together

The friendship that I have with them
        Many years will passed its still the same
                   Save it in my heart forever
                              My Thai friends, it will not be over

                                                                Thailand….land of smile they’ve called
                                                      It suits them ‘coz I like them all
                                        Though I will leave them soon
                           I will always remember them just by looking at the moon
