SWEET FRIENDSHIPS.

SHE MAKES YOU LAUGH, SHE’S ALWAYS THERE
SHE LISTENS WHEN YOU CRY.
SHE’S ALWAYS THERE TO HOLD YOUR HAND,
AND NEVER CASTS A JUDGING EYE.

THE SWEET MEMORIES YOU HAVE TOGETHER
MAKE YOU GIGGLE WHEN YOU THINK OF THEM…
AND EVERYTIME THE BOTH OF YOU TALK
IT DRAWS YOU CLOSER TO HIM.

SHE’S THERE WHEN TRAGEDY HAPPENS
YOU KNOW ON HER YOU CAN DEPEND.
YOU KNOW THERE IS NO END IN SIGHT
FOR YOU AND THIS BELOVED FRIEND.

THOUGH LIFE WILL CONTINUE
TO CHANGE FOR BOTH OF YOU,
YOU CAN TAKE IT TO THE BANK
THAT SHE WILL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR YOU!

SHE’LL LISTEN TO YOU COMPLAIN
AND RANT, AND RAVE, AND SCREAM!
AND SHE’LL NEVER JUDGE YOUR FEELINGS-
BUT SHE’LL PROBABLY OFFER SOME ICE CREAM!

THERE’S NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE HOW
HAPPY THE TIMES ARE WHEN
YOU KNOW YOU CAN DEPEND ON
A WONDERFUL, CARING, FRIEND.
