What makes a friend for life?
This question is always been my strife.
I've had a lot of friends, but never did extend,
A gesture to be my friend for life.
Maybe I haven't found the one,
The person who would always be around.
A best friend to me is, the one that always says,
You can't always count on me, hands down.
But I think you may be the one,
I've been looking for all along.
You've been around for years, I just never saw clear,
How a friend like you could be lifelong.
It's nothing you did or said,
I just never saw you in that way.
But a great person you are, and we always got along,
Why shouldn't our lifelong friendship start today?

I believe in fate you see,
And that is why you've come to me.
I knew one day our paths would cross.
It was just a matter for the boss.
I've looked and searched for many years,
Wondering when you would appear.
My patience sometimes came and went,
And was often in need to vent.
But I kept strong,
And went along.
Knowing you'd,
Soon be viewed.
And now you're here,
You are such a dear.
My fate's still strong,
I'm where I belong.
who is there
no matter what."
