Analysis of Can I call you Friend.
Can I call you Friend?
May I trust you to the end
Can you do the same and
call me a friend?
There's nothing to defend
No worries of ill thoughts,
Just introspective thoughts of the here and now's.
Can I call you friend?
Could my heart be calmed by your reasoning?
Should you dare to care
Or is it that your soul is too damned
Please know why I do this questioning
It's all very simple really...
Can I call you Friend?
