I've known you for years...
been there to wipe away the tears..
I've admired from afar and close..
and know the things I admire the most..
Your smile brings the peak to my dull day..
and I thought I would just take this time to say..

I love you... I love you for who you are..
I need you...for you're my guiding star..
I want you...when I need to talk to someone ..
I miss you... when I go out and have all the fun..

Now I know life is a journey in which we trek..
and you're lucky if you don't get a broken neck..
Where time flies and the night goes on forever..
but the point is to live true and try to be clever..
I've seen you grow from a bud to a rose..
and I've been sure that you're the one who knows..

We love you.. We love you for who you want to be..
We need you... We need you to brighten up our reality..
We want you... We want to be your friend until the end..
We miss you.. and this is why upon this note we send..

We send a note that you are special and worth the respect..
We send a note so you can look back upon and reflect..
Know that people love you, Know that people need you around..
Know that people want you, and we're here when your down..
Know you will always be our favorite listener and friend..
and please keep always this in your mind until the never end..
