It isn't often that I meet
You always make me laugh and smile
You seem to say just what you think
We talk about things till late at night
The thoughts of you roll through my head
And no matter where our paths may lead
Someone I feel close to
But I met someone; someone sweet
And that someone sweet was you
You know just what to say
And even when there's rain and clouds
Your words brighten my day
Your heart is kind and true
There's one good thing about honesty
You don't have to think it through
Almost till the sunrise
And even though it's time for sleep
I can not close my eyes
Your voice I long to hear
Although I know your far away
Somehow you seem so near
I know that in the end
I carry with me a special gift
The gift of a great friend
