A Song For You, My Friend

Refrain:

This is a song for you, my friend,

About a love that will never end.

We beat the odds and win the fight.

Watching each other's back, day and night.

Sing this song with me, my friend

About a love that will never end.

1)

Those were the days when I bumped into you,

Dropping my books and losing my shoe.

You looked at me with sparkling blue eyes,

I saw you belonged to the streetwise guys.

I expected you to make fun of me.

Instead, you carried my books – born was "Me and Thee".

Refrain: This is a song…

2)

Those were the days when my marriage went wrong.

When Vanessa argued all day long.

I felt lonely, not sure where to go

My parents were biased, make me feel low.

I expected you to go and leave me

Instead, you stayed by my side and said, "Me and Thee".

Refrain: This is a song…

3)

Those were the days when we had our fights,

About fast food and other delights.

When we were on stakeout in your car,

The criminals could spot us from afar

I expected you to be mad at me,

Instead, you stayed by my side and said, "Me and thee".

Refrain: This is a song…

4)

Those were the days when you fell for Terry,

She was the girl for you to marry.

A bullet in her head stopped that dream.

When she died, we were no longer a team.

I expected you to live without me.

Instead, you stayed by my side and said, "Me and thee."

Refrain: This is a song…

5)

Those were the days when we laughed and had fun,

Somebody had stolen Dobey's gun.

He ran and hollered, near a breakdown.

The gun was in the bin – and made him frown.

I expected you to blame it on me.

Instead, you stayed by my side and said, "Me and thee."

Refrain: This is a song…

6)

Those were the days when your life was at stake.

To see you lifeless, I could not take.

We had no hope that you would survive.

I ran away, not believing in life.

I expected you to abandon me.

Instead, you opened your eyes and said, "Me and Thee".

Refrain: This is a song…

7)

Those are the days when your smile lights my heart

There's nothing that can tear us apart.

There are times when you still suffer pain.

But when I can hold you, it keeps me sane.

I expect you to be moody with me.

Instead, you assure me, "Forever me and thee".

Refrain:

This is a song for you, my friend,

About a love that will never end.

We beat the odds and win the fight.

Watching each other's back, day and night.

Sing this song with me, my friend

About a love that will never end.
