While So Small

WHILE SO SMALL

WHILE so small and feeling weary
when the moon replaces the sun
as tears fall by the way side
and there is no one you can call
you can lean on me and shed your burden
upon my own shoulders
And today you endure storms
but above the clouds 
oh, above the clouds
are shades of deep blue and sun 
  so when pain and sadness 
  oh sadness comes remember
  please remember to turn tears
  into those of happiness 
  and laughter.
You stood by me when i was drowning
and for that i am forever grateful
you are my friend
you are the silver moon
and it is a gift
that a friend like you
can only offer to another friend

(you saved me. Oh you helped me in ways I cannot repay).
