Years go by, seasons change
Life can sometimes rearrange
Faces fade, paths diverge slow
But there's one thing that I know
Through the laughter and the tears
You've been constant through the years
Through it all, you're standing near
Chasing shadows, calming fear
Always know I hold you dear
My friend, year after year
Your steady presence, crystal clear
My friend, year after year
Life throws curves we didn't plan
Need a supportive, helping hand
When I stumble, lose my way
You bring brightness to my day
Never judging, always true
So glad I found my way to you
Through it all, you're standing near
Chasing shadows, calming fear
Always know I hold you dear
My friend, year after year
Your steady presence, crystal clear
My friend, year after year
More than distance, more than time
This constant friendship feels sublime
Through it all, you're standing near
Chasing shadows, calming fear
Always know I hold you dear
My friend, year after year
Your steady presence, crystal clear
My friend, year after year
Year after year... you're here...
