 To My Dearest Friend

The road is long,
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows when

But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

So on we go
His welfare is of my concern
No burden is he, to bear
We'll get there
For I know
He would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

If I'm laden at all
I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another

It's a long, long road
From which there is no return
While we're on our way to there
Why not share

And the load
Doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

NEC ASPERA TERRENT
was your motto
"Difficulties be Damned"
and that will be my motto from now on
Your True Friend Derek
