When darkness falls upon your heart and soul
I'll be the light that shines for you
When you forget how beautiful you are
I'll be there to remind you.

When you can't find your way
I'll find my way to you
When troubles come around
I will come to you.

I'll be your shoulder when you need someone to lean on
Be your shelter when you need someone to see you through
I'll be there to carry you
I'll be there.

I'll be the rock that will be strong for you
The one that will hold on to you
When you feel that rain falling down
When there's nobody else around
I'll be. 

And when you're there with no one there to hold
I'll be the arms that reach for you
And when you feel your faith is running low
I'll be there to believe in you.

When all you find are lies
I'll be the truth you need
When you need someone to run to
You can run to me.

I'll be your shoulder when you need someone to lean on
Be your shelter when you need someone to see you through
I'll be there to carry you
I'll be there.

I'll be the rock that will be strong for you
The one that will hold on to you
When you feel that rain falling down
When there's nobody else around
I'll be.

I'll be the sun
When your heart's filled with rain
I'll be the one
To chase the rain away.

I'll be your shoulder when you need someone to lean on
Be your shelter when you need someone to see you through
I'll be there to carry you
I'll be there.

I'll be the rock that will be strong for you
The one that will hold on to you
When you feel that rain falling down
When there's nobody else around
I'll be.

Friends are those wonderful people we can always count on; the ones who are always there when we need them the most for comfort and support.  In the past, our definition of friends has always been those people we grew up, those who lived near us, or those who worked with us - people we have personally met.

But now, with the availability of the internet,  the definition of friends has changed.  We can now form strong friendships with people we have never met; people from all over the United States, and people from all over the world.  We can reach out to these new friends with just a click of the mouse, greet them with a "Good Morning" when the day has begun, and wish them "Goodnight" when the day has ended. What a change!  This new definition of friends will go on forever.
