True Friends

When you are hurting.

When your heart aches.

I won’t leave you in pain.

When your world is clouded over.

And you don’t know who to turn to.

When all you do is cry.

Come let me help you.

When all your troubles and fears 

Seem to bring you tears.

And all you need is a shoulder

My shoulder I will lend and dry your tears

When your world is out of control.

And your life no longer a straight line.

And the strength you can not bare.

I will give you hope that it will be fine.

When you just want to share

Your hopes and dreams to be.

Or the guy that moved in next door.

You can trust me.

For I am here for you cause I am your true friend.
