my friend you are to me
my friend you are to me
an angel by my side
an angel by my side
by my side you are, my friend
to me, an angel

a listening ear you lend
a listening ear you lend
when burdens weigh me down
when burdens weigh me down
you lend when burdens weigh me down
a listening ear


you gently dry my tears
you gently dry my tears
when the rain begins to fall
when the rain begins to fall
when to fall, my tears gently begin
you dry the rain

you when burdens weigh me down
gently dry the tears
by my side, my friend,
when a rain begins to fall
you lend to me a listening ear
you are my angel

Alright, now I'm ticked...why can I not do this?  LOL...this is great...sigh...I think I need a new secret decoder ring...geez.

enough about me---this is fab---so glad to see everyone getting in on the action!  maybe if enough people do, and, I'm quite sure nobody is drowning, I MIGHT stick my little toe in the water...sigh...

A perfectly angelic offering.
I enjoyed this form which is
very difficult to write.
You did it flawlessly.
