Romance may dwindle
And passion may end,
And all that I ask you
Is please be my friend.
A friend who is there with me,
A friend who is giving;
A friend who will share with me
All the nonsense of living.
Some people wither,
But some people bend,
And the way to resilience
Is having a friend.
I don't know where we're going
Or what the trend is,
But I do know
So few know
What having a friend is.
