When you are a friend to someone in need

You don't realize how far that can go

Until that someone needs your guidance and support

Being a friend is what you need to know

When someone cries on your shoulder late at night

When someone gives you a 2AM call

You a friend to that person

Because you did not let them fall

When you buy them a gift just to cheer them up

When you saw that they were down

That's when you are a friend

Because you did not want to see them frown

When you tell them they can find a better person to date

So you keep deciding to meddle

That is when you are a friend

Because you did not let them settle

When you did not want them alone on a Saturday night

So you invite them over the phone

That is when you are a friend

Because you did not want them to be alone

When you give them really big hugs

Just out of simple love

You are a friend you know why?

You love them high and above

When you see they need support

So you give a hand to lend

You are a friend

And you never pretend

When you show unconditional love

And you always show up in the end

You offer support to those you care about

You are simply, a friend
