If someone asked what's a best friend?
I'd have to say someone who's there 'til the bitter end,
someone who listens when times get hard,
someone who'll tell you your fella's a jerk.
They'll always arrive in the nick of time
with chocolate and vodka
and a feel better line like, "You're too good for him anyway,"
because best friends are angels that God sent along.
She'll tell you you're stunning when you're looking fab
but will call you a hippo when you're flashing your flab.
She'll stand by your side and love all your kids.
She'll be your chief bridesmaid when you get married.
When you make the wrong choice
and she knew how it'd go,
she'll give you a cuddle and never say, "Told you so,"
so this is for you, my best friend in the world.
You're my rock,
you're my sanity.
Couldn't have wished for a better girl.
