Devoted Friend

Devoted Friend

If anything were to happen to you

I don't know what I'd do

I'd blame myself, that's for sure

For the lack of protection for you

I'd climb the highest mountain

I'd swim in the deepest sea

To find a way to help you

And bring you back to me

For without you in my life

I just wouldn't be the same

The brightness you brought

Changed me, when first I came

In the beginning, I tried to steal the cards

And show that I was the best

Later on, you showed no resentment

For that and all the rest

I wondered how it could be

For one to give such generosity

My training never covered it

Why you'd offer to help me?

My heart was cold and hard

The only words that I knew

You showed me warmth and friendship

I wouldn't be the same without you

So now in your time of need

I'll be there by your side

I silently swore to keep you safe

And by my word I will abide

To see you sick, it hurts me deeply

And the person behind it better run

Because I'll hunt them down

And break their bones one by one

For doing this to you

It just doesn't seem fair

I'd instantly sacrifice myself

If you lived, I wouldn't care

So I'm off to start my journey

And bring you back the cure

I'll tell you my true feelings

Of this you can be sure
