These are the friends you need close by,

The ones with caring words and to dry your eyes.

A friend to listen and lend an ear.

No need for words,

she’ll take what you need her to hear.

A friend for tears, she’s someone to cry in front of.

She’s someone to wrap you up in her arms,

when the going gets rough.

A friend to make you laugh and smile, giggle and snort.

She’ll remind you that life’s too short

to take yourself too seriously.

br>A friend for conversation that never ends,

She’ll talk to you about anything

clothes, shopping, even men.

And last but not least, don’t you forget it,

your childhood friend who you grew up with.

She helped make you the person you are today

And forever in each other’s lives you’ll stay

These are the friends I have in my life,

And I’m thankful because without them I might

Go a little bit crazy, and a little bit ill

While trudging up this hill
