I've wished on the first star
and the first robin
when the clasp
of my chain necklace
reached the pendant

I pull it back
and I make a wish
that you were my friend
Won't you
be my friend

I've wished
I've hoped
I've prayed
for a friend just like you

I know you like to put me down
I never did a thing to start it
I didn't even know who you were
until you said those first mocking words
Can't you
be my friend
