You'll always be a friend of mine.

Your heart is of the gentle kind.

And whenever you need it,

I'll be here to feed it.

Oh, you'll always be a friend of mine.

-

You'll always be a friend of mine.

Your mind lovingly cradles the divine.

And when I am blind,

It's your hand I find.

Oh, you'll always be a friend of mine.

-

You'll always be a friend of mine.

Your honesty and purity shines bright.

And in the dark of night,

You're a beacon of light.

Oh, you'll always be a friend of mine.

-

You'll always be a friend of mine.

Your humanity surpasses all that is sublime.

And when justice is denied,

The just have you on their side.

Oh, you'll always be a friend of mine.

-

You'll always be a friend of mine.

Your mastery of love and art is truly refined.

And when I cannot sleep,

I drink them in deep.

Oh, you'll always be a friend of mine.

-

You'll always be a friend of mine.

Your compassion has a way of arriving in the nick of time.

And though some may decline,

Your grace awaits them on the sidelines.

Oh, you'll always be a friend of mine.

-

You'll always be a friend of mine, Nik,

You'll always be a friend of mine.

Your heart and mine shall forever be entwined,

Oh, you''ll always be a friend of mine.

You'll always be a friend of mine.
