A friend

Cynthia novotny 1984 (Wilmington de)



When I was down
You were the one
To make me smile
When I was upset
You were a shoulder to cry on
When I needed a hand
You were always there
You were my best friend
When I thought life would end
You were there to talk to me
When I was in pain
You were my one true friend
