My Best Friend

Words by Judy Whann, music by Don Whann

VERSE 1
You were there when I needed a friend
When I felt lost and my life was at an end
You saw in me a person whose life was free
You became my best friend
You were there to ease the pain
To teach me to let go, with nothing to gain
A boy and a girl out have fun, just friendship
No need to run, my best friend

CHORUS
I want to hold you, I want to keep you
I never want to let you go
You're my best friend
I will love you to the end
You are family, always a part of me
You're my best friend

VERSE 2
You shared your secrets with me
You knew my secrets, too
We grew so close together
One day you said "I love you"
You kissed me, at first I didn't know how to feel
Then I realized that this was real
The heat, your lips to mine
The smile you gave was so kind
My best friend

[TO CHORUS]

RAMP
But the hurt in my heart
The strength of another love so true
How could I love two people
And not separate the two
Then I realized, I loved both of you

VERSE 3
You knew the reason, you had to let me go
Your love for me was stronger than I could know
You remained my best friend

You're my best friend; I will love you to the end
You are family, always a part of me
You're my best friend...forever
You're my best friend...forever
You're my best friend.
