LULLABY FOR A FRIEND

When she is crying on your shoulder
And you don’t know what to say
Just whisper softly in her ear
That everything will be okay

When she says her heart is broken
And her soul feels so alone
Just tell her that you love her
Just tell her on the phone

When you hear her breathe so gently
And see tears fall from her eyes
Wipe them one by one away
Tell her everybody cries

And soon she will look up to you
And maybe start to smile
And thank you just for being there
Through all the painful while

And you’ll look down in her golden eyes
And know just what to say
That on you she can depend
And everything will be okay.
