I was hurt, I was scared
couldn't find a friend who cared
I was there for everyone else
but none were there when I needed help
when I talked they had closed ears
they disreguarded my pain and fears
but then God brought you into my life
in the midst of my darkness shined a little light
chorus
and I have never been so happy, never felt this way
and every night when I get on my knees to pray
I thank God for bringing you into my life
to help heal all the pain and all of the strife
I've never had a friend like you before
you give me a reason to keep living for
other friends were only good friends when they felt like it
when you walked into my life God gave me a precious gift
you listen to what I have to say
when I'm down you don't turn away
you don't insult me or put me down
you don't call me names when I wear a frown
you show me I am loved which I am not used to
rarely ever do any of my friends ever say "I love you"
but you always make me feel good about myself
with you I don't feel so completely worthless
you actually want to hang out with me
you look at the part of me that no one else could see
chorus
I just wanted to tell you how special you are to me
that your friendship is as wonderful as can be
I never thought that any friend could be like you are
but you proved me wrong and you touched my heart
I never thought I would open up myself to anyone ever again
because every other person has left me in the end
and my trust fund was running on low almost empty
but you came and brought out all that was inside of me
and I thank you, I thank you
chorus
