Close Personal Friend

A close personal friend of mine said he'd love me for all time
He said that when he went away
He'd come back for me some day

A close personal friend of mine spoke in stories so divine
Unveiling heaven's mysteries
Showing me the things I could not see

I'll hang on every word he says to me
I know each one will prove to be
Good advice, given for my life
That'll mean the world to me

A close personal friend of mine never cheated, never lied
And so I know that I can trust
In his wisdom and in his love

I would be a fool
To ever disregard
All the things you've spoken
I would be a fool
Not to pay attention to you
