Real friend, they don't let you down,
Each brings a light to your dark days.
Always there when you're feeling down,
Listening to what you have to say.
Finding a way that will make you smile,
Reminding you that you are loved.
Inspiring you to go that extra mile,
Encouraging you to rise up above.
Never wanting to make you feel sad,
Doing all that they possibly can.
Saying what is good, not what is bad,
And taking the time to give you a hand.
Real friends will answer your calls,
Even in the middle of the night.
Real friends will catch you if you fall,
Every time you lose sight of the light.
After everyone has come and gone,
Life's true friends stay on and on.
