Hi pal!
I appreciate that you let me be the one to sit beside you through the tough times, and to entrust me with your deepest secrets and hurts. Even though I want nothing more than to see you happy, before the sadness passes, I am happy to be able to walk through the dark times with you. As I recall the difficult times that we have journey together in the past, I am rreminded that the friendship we have is so rare and should never be taken for granted. If I could write songs I would, but since I can’t, let me just steal this particular song that reminds me of us.
I know that I’ve been messed up
You never let me give up
All the nights and the fights
And the blood and the breakups
You’re always there to call up
I’m a pain, I’m a child, I’m afraid
But yet you understand
Yeah like no one can
Know that we don’t look like much
But no one fucks it up like us
16 and you never even judged me
Matter of fact I always thought you were too cool for me
Sitting there in the caravan
All the nights we’ve been drunk on the floor
And yet you understand
Yeah like no one can
We both know what they say about us
But they don’t stand a chance because
When I’m with you
When I’m with you
I’m standing with an army
I’m standing with an army
When I’m with you
When I’m with you
I’m standing with an army
Standing with an army
Dark times, you could always find the bright side
I’m amazed by the things that you would sacrifice
Just to be there for me
How you cringe when you sing out of tune
But yet it’s everything
So don’t change a thing
We both know what they say about us
But they don’t stand a chance because
When I’m with you
When I’m with you
I’m standing with an army
I’m standing with an army
When I’m with you
When I’m with you
I’m standing with an army
Standing with an army
I hope you will be able to find strength in me the same was I always manage to find some in you. Hang on, comrade.
Your friend, EL
