Friendship is like an island
in a raging sea,
It's there to give you refuge
if ever there's a need.
Its arms are like a harbor
a shelter from the storm,
They're there to protect you
no matter right or wrong.
Its voice is like a summer breeze
that sweeps across the earth,
Whispering gentle words of hope
a promise of rebirth.
A friend's heart is filled with kindness
the warmth will touch your soul,
its there to bring you comfort
and willing to share the load.
A friend's mind is always open
it's heard many things,
there's someone willing to listen
to whatever you must bring.
This is what a friend will give
to those who are so dear,
If ever you're lost in the sea of life
just call a friend, I promise she will hear.
