I'd like to be the help that
you've been always glad to be.

I'd like to mean as much to you
each minute of the day
As you have meant, old friend of mine,
to me along the way.

I'd like to do the big things and
the splendid things for you,
To brush the grey from out your skies,
and leave them only blue.

And share with you its beauty
On the days your're feeling blue

If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own
A place to find serenity
A place to be alone

If I could take your troubles
I would throw them out to sea
But all these things I'm finding
Are impossible for me

I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair
But let me be what I know best
A friend that always there

Standing by,
All the way,
Here to help you through your day.

Holding you up,
When you are weak,
Helping you find what it is you seek.

Catching your tears,
When you cry,
Pulling you through when the tide is high.

Absorbing your voice,
When you talk,
Standing by when you learn to walk.

Just being there,
Through thick and thin,
All just to say, you are my friend.

Enough trials to make you strong,
Enough sorrow to keep you human,
And enough hope to make you happy.

The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched,, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.
