I'm sorry I can't take away your pain
Or keep your tears from falling.
But I promise you that I'll be right by your side
Whenever you come calling.
I wish I could numb your heartache
And make it easier to bear.
Never will I betray you
And you need not ask if I still care.
We've weathered so much
But still the storm rages on.
I don't know how you do it...
Stay so calm and so strong.
You mean so much to me
And I hate to see you cry.
I wish I had the answer
When you ask me why.
You've always been there for me.
To calm my nerves or let me cry.
You give me the strength
To stand up and give life another try.
This I write to you my friend,
One day I hope you learn
How great a friend you've been to me,
And in hopes the favor
I'll be able to return.
