Everyone Should Have A Friend Like You


Everyone should have a friend like you
You are so much fun to be with
And you are such a good person
You crack me up with laughter
And touch my heart with your kindness
You have a wonderful ability
To know when to offer advice
And when to sit in quiet support
Time after time
You've come to my rescue
And brightened so many of my routine days
And time after time
I've realized how fortunate
I am that my life includes you
I really do believe that
Everybody should have a friend like you
But so far it looks like
You are one of a kind!

You are friendly, kind and caring
Sensitive, loyal and understanding
Humorous, fun, secure and true
Always there... yes that's you.

Special, accepting, exciting and wise
Truthful and helpful, with honest blue eyes
Confiding, forgiving, cheerful and bright
Yes that's you... not one bit of spite.

You're one of a kind, different from others
Generous, charming, but not one that smothers
Optimistic, thoughtful, happy and game
But not just another... in the long chain.

Appreciative, warm and precious like gold
Our friendship won't tarnish or ever grow old
You'll always be there, I know that is true
I'll always be here... always for you.

Stands by you when nothing goes right...

Till they somehow just vanish from sight.

A word from a friend gives a lift

To your heart and spirit that shows you once more

Why friendship is life's dearest gift!

Factually, one of the best moments

Remaining in my heart of hearts

Inevitably none other than you

Evident from my action towards thou

Need no proof for the greatest ship

Destined to be your greatest friend in this friend-ship.

First to wish you on your birthday

Relishing every moment with you that day

Ignoring the changes in your moods

Expecting you to provide me the food

Never again will we ever part

Despite everything that happened in the past.

Forget not the moments that we relish

Round and round the rose bush

Igniting the light of our great love

Enough to burn the field we plough

Not again should we ever part

Death will only tear us apart.

~ Hariharan S
