Letter to a Friend (Now)

You were the only one to turn to
When everyone else had come and gone
You were the only one to run to
When the wounds from the battlefield bled through

Drove away the dark
Healed the scars, every single day
You lit up the spark, like a shining star
To help me numb the pain

Your words, I'm singing
Your smile keeps bringing
This light upon my face
You showed me that
The pain can end
You help my heart to mend
You are, my best friend

You were the only one to get me through
Those sleepless nights, wondering what to do
You're one of the few to be good and true
Couldn't think of anyone better to look to

Swept away the hurt
Brushed the dirt, up off my face
You held me high Kept my eyes dry
Made me feel like I could fly

Your words, I'm singing
Your smile keeps bringing
This light upon my face
You showed me that
The pain can end
You help my heart to mend
You are, my best friend

And it's taken me so long
To find the words to say
To you
The one who's gotten me through

Always there for me
Just know I'll be
By your side forever
To the edge of the sea

To the edge of the sea
Forever

Your words, I'm singing
Your smile keeps bringing
This light upon my face
You showed me that
The pain can end, you
Help my heart to mend

Your words I'm singing
Your smile keeps bringing
This light into my life
'Till the last page
Our final days
Up until the end

Just know
You'll always be my best friend
