Dear Friend
by: Paul Belair


Dear Friend,
I hope you get this letter on time.
I hope it's not too late
Many things I've never said
Many things you've never heard
Things have gotten so complicated over here
And i never quite found the time
To write this letter to you, which i fear you'll never get
There's been something on my mind,
And my words are hard to find,
You've Been there for me from the start
As i brushed your advice away for all my pride
I never Listened, but you never cared,
You stayed behind me, beside me and far ahead
You never once let me slip, and never once did you not forgive
For all the pain i've caused you, For all the tears i've caused
I write this letter to you now
Though the cause is surely lost
I heard the other morning, as i sat down for my brunch
Words i feared to hear, that you had passed away
I don't quite believe it, i still dont' understand
Because to me i see you everywhere, watching over me
So I Finish now, with a few kind words,
To thank you for all you've done
I'm sorry for everything I took for granted, for all i had forgot
Always in my memories,
Your Friend, who is too late
