I Want To Be Like You

by Ten Feet Tall   Jun 27, 2004


You are something special
No one is quite like you
You take life in a different perspective
You look at life outside the box
You live each day as not a routine
But as an adventure
You don't think about a situation
Until it is upon you
You deal with it then
When it comes to you
You deal with people the same way
You are a friend to all
Talking to everyone as an equal
On the same level
Even if that level
Is yours and not theirs
You know all
When someone is down
You know exactly what to do
Talk for hours
Or send in the clowns
Anything to make a friend happy again
You need your help
And take others' advice when needed
Let others help you
Are man enough to ask for that help
Not floundering in your struggles
But reaching out
To be pulled out of the sea
You inspire many
Like me
With your many abilities
Strengths
Weaknesses
The way you are
Is so awesome
People want to be like you
I want to be like you
Able to do the things you do
The way you do them
Without a care in the world
