I have a friend of many years who
walked with me and shared my tears
Her love and kindness always shines
not a sister but a sweet friend of mine
When we were young and had little
ones we would help each other out
We would go shopping and have a laugh
And fool about then back home to get the
kids from school no more time to have fun
or play at being cool
When we had a fight with our husbands
we would go and have a moan
Then when we felt better we would go back home
You know she is a supper cook and her house was
always full of happy chat and little kids
And to have a coffee was a rule
Now that we are older and as we lose a friend or two
I thank God for every moment that I have left with you
Good friends are a treasure of that there is no doubt
I don't know where I would be if she hadn't helped me out
