In the spring it all began
The darkest place I found a friend
At the very latest of the night
You taught me how to save a life
Every day I'd think it through
And decide that I would never give up on you
The odds were stacked against me high
But I felt my miracle was coming nigh
Then one day those hopes came true
When you said the words "I love you"
Every day I prayed and prayed
For just one person to say that phrase
And now at last I have my friend
The one that would love me til the end
We'll hold hands as we walk through the gates
To finally see The Chairman's face
As we walk through streets of gold
Talking of those times of old
You'll wonder why my feelings stayed the same
It's because I put you in my picture frame
And every time I saw your face
I'd smile and say "I'll finish this race"
Because I know that around the bend
You'll be waiting for me at the end
