FIRST SMILES OF FRIENDSHIP

It’s like waiting for “Old Faithful” to blast into the sky
Boarding an airplane, for the first time, set to fly
Throwing your hands up on the roller coaster ride
That’s the feeling, that I felt, when I first saw your smile

It was worth the trip, the twenty hour drive
Sending out messages, when the number wasn’t right
Finally talking, and the laughter all the while
That feeling, that I felt, when I first saw your smile

~~~*Chorus*~~~
There’s nothing like friendship
Feeling wanted and safe
Knowing you all mean
Every single word you say
The catch in your voices
When it’s time to go away
When I first saw your smile
I wished that I could stay
~~*~~
It’s like finding what was missing, believing it was lost
Fighting for all your faith holds, no matter what the cost
Hoping to meet your idol, when they’ve finished on the stage
Seeming five years younger, when someone guesses your age
It’s happy tears, mascara smeared, when the bride walks down the aisle
I felt all of this, in our friendship, when I first saw your smile

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~
I will be back again, for more time well spent
There will be another day
When our laughter shakes the neighborhood
And we have more time to play
~~*~~
~~~*Chorus*~~~
There’s nothing like friendship
Feeling wanted and safe
Knowing you all mean
Every single word you say
The catch in your voices
When it’s time to go away
When I first saw your smile
I wished that I could stay
~~*~~
