Long as we got each other,
life will never be that bad,
we can handle what comes our way,
no reason to be sad.

Long as we got each other,
the sun will always shine,
and even if it rains, you see,
rainbows are just divine.

Long as we got each other,
it's fine and dandy, life is good,
and there'll always be love and light
in our hundred-acre wood.

Yo Passing shadows,

This works very well.  I like the end rhymes.

thanks ya'll

The song is neat and I'm sorry the sound is out on your computer RV and Richy

the song goes like this:

Friends  

Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the soundtrack friends

I hope the day will be a lighter highway
For friends are found on every road
Can you ever think of any better way
For the lost and weary travellers to go

(chorus)
Making friends for the world to see
Let the people know you got what you need
With a friend at hand you will see the light
If your friends are there then everything's all right

It seems to me a crime that we should age
These fragile times should never slip us by
A time you never can or shall erase
As friends together watch their childhood fly

(chorus)
Making friends for the world to see
Let the people know you got what you need
With a friend at hand you will see the light
If your friends are there then everything's all right

What a sweet lighthearted poem--full of hope and light.  I took wish to back to the hundred acres woods and spend sometime with Christopher Robin.  Pleasure to read.

Loving this one, Dixie.  My family used to call me "Piglet" because I was always running along behind them all talking in my baby of the family voice.
