Distance is only miles

Out of a sadness
came a gift of happiness,
a friendship to last a lifetime,
Two hearts were broken
He sent us a token
So we didn't have time to pine.

He gave me "you", he gave you "me"
to treasure and to love,
to see through all the bad times,
and be happy to share the good.

Whenever your down or feeling low,
from you e-mail's, I'll always know.
I'll be there for you, in heart and mind,
for a true friendship, is hard to find.

Distance is only in miles,
It's friendship that gives us smiles,
The love and the warmth,
and the laughter and thoughts,
is the lesson that he had taught.

So in my heart you'll stay
and together we will be,
In a True friendship, across the sea
together you and me.

This friendship i truly cherish
and in my heart, will never perish
although i miss him very much,
he gave us the greatest gift,
from God above.
