Friends

Warm me with a nod or with unspoken words- they don’t have to be heard

Those words are all I need find- They comfort me when life’s been unkind

It’s the little things that make a friend a friend.

Friends are there when you fall and there when you call

Be there thru all that is makin’ you cry

And be there to share joys that will split the sky

It’s those little things that make a friend a friend.

Now please don’t walk behind me because you may fall

Anfd don’t walk before me, I may get lost in the night

Just walk beside me, we’ll never walk alone

Be my friend everything’s all right.

Show me how to share, just show me you care,

show me you’re there when I’m down and out

That’s what friendship’s all about

It’s the little things that make a friend a friend.

You know some people put a switch on their friendship

Then they turn it on and off...I don’t need that kind of friend

I could neveer be lonely enough

I hope you can see that you’re precious to me

Love is the key so take hold of my hand

Please understand, I’ll do what I can

It’s those little things that make a friend a friend.

It’s those little things that make a friend a friend.

1976 Anthony Foster

I note that all the being and doing here is asked of the friend, not me. I had a lot to learn. This was writtenduring a rocky time with a friend.
