Analysis of FRIENDS LIKE YOU



From the day I got close to you,
Your heart; pure and beautiful
Your funny laughter; sweet and innocent,
As I think of our friendship, I smile.

Words cannot describe what you really mean to me.
I don't think you'll understand
How you've touched my life in your own way
And made me smile countless times.

You became my closest friend.
It's been about four years now
And you're the one I turn to,
When I'm down and need an ear.

You always have my back.
You always tell me I can,
You belong in my heart.
I know you as a sissy, and I'll always care.
