To a Friend (hurting inside)

if tonight you can't find
all those things you seek
when everything
in front of you
appears its utmost bleak
when nothing seems
to go your way
and you have to take
things day by day
hold on..
don't hide your
tell-tale tears
hold on..
it's all just
smoke and mirrors
the winds will change
they always do
take it from me,
i hurt like you
when all your days
are gloomy and blue
and all the world
is up against you
when happiness doesn't come
when you think it will
you'll find your way
i know you will
hold on..
let nature have it's way
hold on..
the clouds will go away
for you i have no fear
i know an end is near
we'll stop your pain together
cuz' nothing last forever
i know the world keeps movig
while your time is standing still
when people all look happy
and you think you never will
the night gray and murky sky
turned your heart a lazy gray
it rained on you and made you cry
and brought everyone else a sunny day
but that's when things get better
it's always been that way
your pain can't last forever
please trust me when i say
hold on..
i feel your every tear
don't hurt..
it hurts me too
hold on..
please look into my mirror
i'm crying just like you
let's take things day by day
i'll help you find your way
and when happiness finds
its way back to you
and your tears dry up
cuz' your crying is through
just one thing i ask of you
will you please look back
and help me too?
