I was there when you needed me
Now you're here when I need you
The world is full of fair-weather friends
But good and loyal friend are few

We've shared many good laughs
And we've shared quite a few tears
But we came through everything together
For together we have nothing to fear

We've had some very good times
And we've endured a few bad
We share each other's happiness
And comfort each other when we're sad

No matter what life has put us through
We've always remained very close
We're ready to stand up for each other
Perhaps this is what matters most

I know that our friendship will last
From beginning to the end
We're all one big family
Thanks to you, my dear friends.

Dedicated, quite simply, with my eternal love and gratitude, to all of my friends.
