I want to be a friend who'll remain by your side;
When you've been knocked down by foolish pride!

I want to be a friend who'll help heal a broken heart;
When you need some encouragment for a new start!

I want to be a friend who'll hand you a tube of glue;
When you find you've become unglued from boo hoos!

I want to be a friend who'll be with you to the end;
When you think your path's turned a wrong bend!

I want to be a friend who'll give advice that's good;
When you need to hear the truth of could and would!

I want to be a friend who'll paint the sky all sunny
When you need to laugh, and go find things funny!

I want to be a friend that keeps cookies and cakes;
When you need something sweet, and can't bake!

I want to be a friend that holds your umbrella open;
When raindrops are falling as you've been moping!

I want to be a friend that grows you pretty flowers;
When you need a bouquet of love to be empowered!

I want to be a friend that will remain yet by your side;
When you stumble, to catch you as you slip and slide!

I want to be a friend that's gonna hold on really tight;
When you have bad dreams in the middle of the night!

I want to be a friend that wants you to always know;
When you're hanging from a branch, I'll never let go!
