"This is for you, my friend. 
The one person I can tell anything to
Who can relate to me like no one else
Who I can laugh with to no extent
Who I can cry to life gets hard
Who can look at me and make everything ok

This is for you, my friend
Who has always been there to make me smile
Who has offered a hug when I needed one
Who doesn't know what our friendship means to me

If tommorrow doesn't come
And you never get to hear me say these things
Know that you are special to me
And have added something great to my life

If tomorrow doesn't come
Know in your heart that someone loves you for the person you are, not for the person you want to be
Know that someone looks up to you for being brave
That someone thinks the world of you
That someone doens't know what they would have done without you
Know that someone would not be the person they are today without you

If tommorrow never comes
Know that that someone is me

This is for you, my friend."
