Dearest Friend

Wake in the pale morning

Sunlight through the clouds

I feel the rain from yesterday

Clinging to me now

Had the same for breakfast

I had the day before

And then I wait to hear you wake

And open up the door

My bones may be aching

My eyes may be dim

Still I wait to take a walk

With you my dearest friend

With you my dearest friend

Curl up close beside you

Sleep the day away

Dream of running through the grass

Until I hear you say

My bones may be aching

My eyes may be dim

Still I wait to take a walk

With you my dearest friend

With you my dearest friend

Carry me to bed now

Like you did when I was young

Leave the light on long enough

for me to find my spot

Let the night pass by us

While at your feet I lay

Until I open my eyes

And greet a precious day

My bones may be aching

My eyes may be dim

Still I wait to take a walk

With you my dearest friend

With you my dearest friend
