If Only

IF ONLY

Like a desert lioness protecting her cubs

You have power, strength and dependability

And while her softer side may be her fur

Yours is your heart

You have an invincible spirit

And an endearing personality

You are straightforward and honest

Yet sensitive and aware

Anyone that knows you

Is your best friend

And your best friends abound

They all love you

You are a great friend

Everything in my life has been perfect

Because it's brought me to you

I wouldn't change one step of the way

But accelerate it so I got here quicker

I hope we stay friends forever

For you are very special

I can confide in you

And would trust you to the ends of the earth

I know you feel the same way

That's probably the most we can be, though

So let's keep it like that

There's no choice
