When it was dark all around

When it was dark all around
And I couldn’t separate dreams from reality
You were the only one who came around,
Supported who was and who I wanted to be

So thank you friend,
I know you’re the one I need

There have been countless times
When with my opinion, no one agreed
Yet you gave me unconditional support
Only you knew it was what I need

When there was noise all around
And I couldn’t seem to hear myself think
You were the only one who came around,
And pulled me up before I could sink

So thank you friend,
I know you’re the one I need

There have been countless times
When I didn’t even make sense to myself
Yet you gave me unconditional understanding
Rendering my doubts and confusions, powerless

You gave me love and support
When I least deserved it
You taught me it was okay
My mistakes, I could admit

So thank you friend,
I know you’re the one I need

You are always there
To catch me when I fall
You never complain
You seem to endure it all

You are always there
Through my successes and failures
All become personal to you
You help me right my errors

So thank you friend,
I know you’re the one I need…

Tell me how you knew
This was what I seek
Tell me how you knew
Friendship was what I need.
