A friend like you
when we talk,
my problems melt away,
you take me back,
to the times we were kids,
do you know how happy i was than?
i had a mother,
and you as my best friend,
what more could i ask for?
everything i wanted,
was right in front of me,
and i took it for granted,
now i'm thinking back,
to a life wasn't so bad,
until you walked into my life,
it was gray,
wondering if i should live another day,
i got my smile back,
and gaining back my confidence,
cuz i have a friend like you,
true friends are hard to find,
we been through thick and thin,
and helped the other person through,
i just want to say,
THANK YOU! ! ! !

Take Me Back
Take me back to see you smile again
And the love you had for your friends
Take me back for the times we had
When we joked and laughed take me back
'Cause I know you'll live forever
And I know we're still together
thru' your music and your love
Take me back, oh take me back, Oh take me back
You were proud and strong
You taught me right from wrong, what a friend!
Take me back for the words you spoke
always get me home to the end
'Cause I know you'll live forever
And I know we're still together
thru' your music and your love
Take me back, take me back.
Take me back to see you smile again
And the love you had for your friends
Take me back for the times we had
When we joked and laughed take me back
'cause I'm lonely If you only could take me back
Take me back, won't you take me
Oh take me back, won't you take me, take me back,
Won't you take me, oh take me back,
I love the life that you live and the things that you give
So won't you take me, oh take me back
Won't you take me, (oh) take me back,
You said the strong would survive,
Oh Lord, gotta try
So won't you take me, oh take me back,
Won't you take me, oh take me back
There's just one thing to say:
Brother, I love you!
Won't you take me back...

One Day Less
Happy anniversary baby
the years are rushing by us
your more beautiful today
Then we walked down the aisle
And I know im not good at this
What I'm trying to say is
Having you stand beside me
has made my life worth while
One true friend is what you've always been to me
One true friend is what I always wanted to be
To have someone love you
Thats true happiness
May you live to be a 100
May I live one day less
There were times when we scraped by
A year or two and it was rough
I love you more for what we went through
And never stopped beliving in us
And I know I'm one of the lucky ones
I couldnt ask for anything more
Cause you can have all the money you'll ever need
and spend your life looking for
One true friend is what you've always been to me
One true friend is what I always wanted to be
To have someone love you
Thats true happiness
May you live to be a 100
May I live one day less
I couldn't live without you
If I had to be alone
I'll be waiting on the other side
When you find your way home
To One true friend is what you've always been to me
One true friend is what I always wanted to be
To have someone love you
Thats true happiness
May you live to be a 100
May I live one day less

What is a Friend?
True friends will never let each other down
True friends will tell each other when they are right or wrong
True friends listen to their problems without casting judgment
True friends are never afraid to tell you like it is
A true friend knows when to say no
A true friend will never flop you
A true friend will be supportive of all you do
A true friend will be there to dry your weeping eyes
A true friend will lend a shoulder for you to cry on
A true friend cares how you are doing
A true friend cares about your day-to-day life
A true friend always calls and checks up on you
A true friend gives of himself/herself without asking for anything in return
A true friend would not lend you money but give you whatever they can
A true friend may argue, fuss, and fight with you but will always be there for you
A true friend forgives you for your shortcomings
A true friend will come to your aid no matter what time of day it is
A true friend doesn’t wait to hear from you to make the first call
A true friend just calls to chitchat with you
A true friend is like a Godsend in times of perils
A true friend is always welcoming
A true would give you the coat off their backs
A true friend knows enough is enough
A true friend will be by your side when you need them the most
A true friend will run an intercept or blockage for you
True friends will CYA for each other
True friends knows that this world wasn’t promised to us
True friends make the best of a bad situation
True friends keeps each others secretes
True friends keeps no secretes from one another
True friends share each other’s lives
A true friend is forever
Are you a true friend?
Ask yourself that question
Can you be a true friend?
Do you deserve a good friend?
There are no goodbyes in life, just hellos
Hello friend

I Don't Look Back
I was born to travel down blue highways
I never seem to learn much from my past
I don't make excuses for my mistakes
I take each day and I live it
Like it was my last
I don't look back
One foot in front of the other
On this one way track I don't look back
I live my life my way
I don't look back
I'm sure there's memories I've missed out on
There's been a couple of loves I've left behind
I haven't found a heart hat I can count on
But don't feel sorry for me
I ain't the lonesome kind
I don't look back
One foot in front of the other
On this one way track
I don't look back
I live my life my way
I don't look back
No I don't look back
I don't look back
One foot in front of the other
On this one way track
I don't look back
I live my life my way
I don't look back
I live my life my way
I don't look back
No I don't look back
No, no I don't look back
I don't look back

Jesus Saves
Some people find Jesus
In the back of a old country church
Some find Him
In an worn out bible book
But I found Jesus
In the heart of a dear old friend
Just when I thought my life was over
Jesus gave back to me again
She told how He loved me
That He never walked away
For that's when I saw His love
In her eyes that very day
Oh how lucky I have been
To have a believer as a friend
For when I was lost and at my bitter end
She brought me back to Him
Just when I thought my life was over
Jesus gave it back again
Now when people ask me
If there really is a God
I just look them in the eye
Give them a simple nod
For if it wasn't for my friend and God
I wouldn't be here today
Just when I thought my life was over
Jesus gave it back that day

What Exactly Is A Friend?
Could you answer this question?
What exactly is a friend?
Is it someone who’s there for you?
Until the very end
Maybe it takes someone special
Somebody brave and kind
What if it’s someone clever?
Somebody pure of mind
A friend is strong and caring
A friend you are to me
A friend is someone thoughtful
A friend is you, you see.
You’ve helped me to see the beauty,
That’s present in every star
I think you’ve really helped me,
One day you will go far
You’ve put a smile on my face,
And helped when I was sad
You’ve been here through everything
Even when things were bad
A friend is always there for you
A friend through thick and thin
A friend is a form of angel
To solve every problem you’re in
Friendship alone is difficult
But two can make it strong
When friends are very close
You really can’t go wrong
Loving you is easy
I promise what I say is true
If you hadn’t come to Carrie’s
There’d be no me and you.
I love my best friend dearly
She makes everything okay
Without my sister in my life
I wouldn’t last a day.

Sincere
Life use to be simple. Emotions clear.
Friends were friends, nothing to fear.
The kiss of a friend, the shake of a hand.
They were all signs of a friend, an honest man.
But now I look in your face and wonder what you hide.
Wonder what you really think, when you confide.
Now I no longer trust what I'm told.
Now that I'm no longer young but old.
I look deep into your face, trying to place
The words you say, wondering what parts you erase.
Trying to see through the layers of wax.
Wondering what parts of you are real and which are fake.
Wish I could light a candle, and watch it all melt.
So I can see what you really meant, what you really felt.
Tired of people, covered in wax, trying to pas what twasn't.
Wish I could go back to a time where wax wasn't.
Wanna be able to step in and know you mean it.
I wanna know that you really feel it.
What will I see, if I melt your wax away?
Is it really you who I'll find at the end of the day?
Are you a person sincere, without wax.
Or have you coated white wax over the black?

My Happiness is Back
After all this pain and cry
I can finally smile again
This is brand new me
My happiness is back
Thanks to a friend
I just need talk to someone and
Think about this through
That person make me realized something
Is that I'm young and got alot going for me
My friend understand me and know how I feel
My friend cheer me up
Everyone I know and love was happy that
My happiness is back
I learn so much, feel so free and alive
I can see light at end of tunnel
I feel like a micrale happen
It's all thanks to an angel and God
It been awhile since I was like this
I thought I never smile, but I am
My happeiness is back

These Are The Times
I hear voices from beyond the veil
They reverberate in mystery
There are shadows in my heart
And they multiply in memory
And the comrades that I've lost out there
In the scattered ruins still speak to me
If the flickering light of your campfire dims
The world grows smaller
It's closing in
I'm standing here
And I want you to live
I know
These are the times we find out who we really are
This will be when a true friend stands at your side
Someone like me who wants to
Believe in the days of high times and innocence
Drawing the lines and shouting back to the night
Someone like me who wants you to live
And from those who've seen the light beyond
We know the end will bring tranquility
But the voices of the friends they heard
Brought them back to this reality
Tough the beacon of light in your life seems dim
The sun's coming up on the world we're in
There are choices here
And I want you to live
I know
These are the times we find out who we really are
This will be when a true friend stands at your side
One more like me
Who wants to believe in the truth of all we experienced
To live again to jump back into the fight
Someone like me who wants you to live
Pouring light from the sky
Portends you and I
Disappears in the night
I still remember
I hear voices from beyond the veil
Like a faint unfinished symphony
Though the beacon of light in your life seems dim
The sun's coming up on the world we're in
I'm standing here
And I want you to live
I know
These are the times we find out who we really are
This will be when a true friend stands at

In Need Of A Friend
I'm in need of a friend.
A friend that I can trust
A friend that I can see and talk to
everyday
A friend that will help me
through my problems
A friend that I will feel
comfortable telling everything to
A friend that I can cry on when
I'm in need of a shoulder
A friend that can be there for me
all the times and not back down
A friend like no other
A friend that I never had

C.P.K.
I remember the way when we used to play
All our troubles seemed so far away
That was when I lived from day to day
Do you remember the times
When all on our minds
Was having fun
And catching a buzz
That was life for you and for me
Oh oh oh I want it back
Oh oh oh I want it back, now
I've got my life to live
Looking back now at all of my friends
And asking myself why these times had to end
Well, I'm older now than I was then
And it makes no sense to try and deny it
There's no use to try and defy it
That's the way life goes for you and for me
Oh oh oh I want it back
Oh oh oh I want it back, now
I've got my life to live
Hey
Oh oh oh I want it back
Oh oh oh I want it back, now
I've got my life to live
Right now, right now, right now

One Man, One Woman
No smiles, not a single word at the breakfast table
Though I would have liked to begin
So much that I wanna say, but I feel unable
You leave and you slam the door
Like youve done many times before
And I cry and I feel so helpless
One man, one woman
Two friends and two true lovers
Somehow well help each other through the hard times
One man, one woman
One life to live together
One chance to take that never comes back again
You and me, to the end
Outside I can see the sun through the open window
Inside everything feels so cold
Whats wrong, what is happening, where did all our love go?
Sometimes when I just cant cope
I cling to a desperate hope
And I cry and I feel like dying
One man, one woman
Two friends and two true lovers
Somehow well help each other through the hard times
One man, one woman
One life to live together
One chance to take that never comes back again
You and me, to the end
Daydreams of a better life, but I have to wake up
The sound of the key in the door
You smile and I realise that we need a shake-up
Our love is a precious thing
Worth the pain and the suffering
And its never too late for changing
One man, one woman
Two friends and two true lovers
Somehow well help each other through the hard times
One man, one woman
One life to live together
One chance to take that never comes back again
You and me, to the end
You and me, to the end

Once I Had
Once I had a friend
They would brighten up my day
Once I had a friend
Till they took it all away
Once I had a friend
To share my load and carry on
Once I had a friend
And now that friend is gone
My advice is when you love someone
Tell them every single day
And when they make you smile
Send a smile back their way
For life is not about money
And life is not about gold
If you have a friend you’re richer
Than most will ever know
A friend sees us through hard times
Holds our hand when we’re alone
A friend is one that loves us
No matter what we’ve done
So if you find a friendship
That brings you to your knees
Just know you can’t hold one
When someone wants to leave
Because to truly love another
To truly love and care
You give them what they seek
Even if they can’t be there

I Curse You Today
When friends seemed
Just fun to me
When friends like you
Turned me into me
When what a friend was
I couldn't mean
Whenever there was a need
You have always been
It was the time
I didn't know
What YOU were to ME! ! !
When I look back
When I see myself
In craters..
I find always a hand
Hanging to me
To pull me up.
When I look back
When I see myself
On hills
I find always a wise smile
Calling me back to ground.
When I look back
When I see myself
On plains
I find always your fingers between mine
And a silent promise
Of our togetherness.
But I curse you today
I curse you my friend! !
You faked the promise
You lied to me...
Now when
I find what you are to me
There is no you beside me....

For You
This is for you, my best friend
The one person I can tell my soul to
Who can relate to me like no other
Who I can laugh with to no extents
Who I can cry to when times are tough
Who can help me with the problems of my life
Never have you turned you back on me
Or told me I wasn't good enough
Or let me down
I don't think you know what that means to me
You have gone through so much pain and you still have time
For me
And I love you for listening to me even when inside YOU are dying
And I look up to you because you are strong
And caring, and beautiful
Even though you don't think you are
And I hope you know I am always here
To listen to you laugh and cry and help
In all the ways that I can
And I will try to be at least half the friend you are
To me
I hope you know I would not be the person I am today without you
My best friend.

In The Back Of My Mind
Im blessed with everything
A world to which a man can cling
So happy times when I break out in tears
In the back of my mind I still have my fears
I live my life with her
Love her true she knows Im sure
I make her happy just living so plain
In the back of my mind Im fraid its gonna change
I tried to run far way from thoughts
I should try to keep away
But they just keep coming back to me
I tried to rationalize
But some day I might realize
That things are just good the way theyll be
I know its so hard to find
A girl who really understands your mind
What will I do if I leave her
It will always be way in the back of my mind

You're a Great Friend
When I have a bad day, I can go to you and
You make me feel better
You also put a smile on my face
I don't know what I will do without you here by my side
Thanks for being there
You're a great friend
When someone broke my heart, I can count on you to be there
You make me realized that there is something more important than him
I don't need him to make me happy
You're a great friend
When I have a problem, I know there is one person I can go to and is you
You help me get through it and not to hold back
You help me with so much
Thank you so much
You're a great friend
When I have a bad day, I can go to you and
You make me feel better
You put a smile on my face
I don't know what I will do without you here by my side

True friend
A true friend will be there for you no matter what
A true friend will listen to you if you have a problem
A true friend will care for you
A true friend offer you gum but not cigarettes
A true friend helps you to walk away from a fight but not to start a fight
A true friend will let you to cry on their shoulder
A true friend will never judge you
A true friend will have your back when you get in trouble
A true friend is hard to find
A true friend will be there to the end
