For the days when I was all alone
And the times when I needed a friend.
You were there when I wanted you.
All I had to do was pretend.
You were there to see me through
and to lend a helping hand.
You would always listen too!
When no one would understand.
Whenever I needed your giving heart.
A message to Heaven...I'd send.
For a friend that is just and smart.
And down you would descend!
Then all my problems would be solved.
All my wounds, you would mend.
All my heartaches, you'd resolve.
And to all my hurts, you'd tend.
And in my world of make believe,
You are my closest friend.
And though I have you at my plea,
In the end...It's all pretend...
