So many times
I've wanted to tell you
Just how much you mean to me
When I needed you
You were always there

You never comforted my pain,
You shared it with me
You never carried me through the hard times,
You held my hand, and walked with me
And gave me the courage to follow through
You never stood behind me,
You stood next to me

Many times we laughed until we cried,
And sometimes we cried until we laughed
There is never a silent moment between us,
If our mouths are not speaking,
Our hearts and minds are.

If I never say it again,
Let me say it now.
You are my dearest friend,
And I love you
