Song for My Friend Amey
You were bold and you were quiet, you were brave and you were shy
You were daring and demure, you were crazy, you were wise.
The friend who never faltered, the love that never failed
And underneath the softest heart, you were tough as nails
I can still remember conversations word for word
Talks that healed us both because we'd shared what we endured
Sometimes we would laugh like we had never shed a tear
Together we had planned that we would live a hundred years
Love so rich
Cannot be replaced
You've written it upon my heart
It cannot be erased
Your devotion lifted them 'til they could stand alone
Then stood aside and let them think
they'd done it on their own
Your support sustained them as they struggled to succeed
You gave them what they lacked before they even felt the need
Love so rich
Cannot be replaced
You've written it upon their hearts
It cannot be erased
When I need your guidance to remember who I am
When I need to say what only you can understand
You'll be close beside me like we've never said goodbye
And when I listen carefully I'll hear your voice reply
Love so rich
Cannot be replaced
You've written it upon my heart
It cannot be erased
