Written with a pen
Sealed with a kiss
If you are my friend,
Answer me this
Are we friends
Or are we not
You told me once
But I forgot
So tell me now
And tell me true
So I can say...
I am here for you
Of all the friends
I've ever met
Your the one
I wont forget
And if I die
Before you do
I'd go to heaven
And wait for you
I'd give the angels
Back their wings
And risk the loss
Of everything
Just to prove
My friendship is true
To have a friend
Just like you
