Friends If I could catch a rainbow, I would do it just for you and share with you its beauty on the days you're feeling blue. If I could build a mountain, you could call your very own, a place to find serenity, a place to be alone. If I could take your troubles I would toss them in the sea, but all these things I'm finding, are impossible for me. I cannot build a mountain or catch a rainbow fair, but let me do what I know best, a friend that's always there. Mam and Dad
