The girl with the prettiest smile
The long mermaid hair
The girl who loves me
We are quite a pair
The girl who I met when I wasn’t on my feet
The girl who is there for me I’d never thought I’d meet

I’m gonna tell you a story
It isn’t a very sweet one
When I was young I was lonely
Used to always get bullied
I thought I was fat and ugly and I thought I looked like a boy
People told me I wasn’t worth it and I let my life get destroyed

In seventh grade I met a girl
She sat at my art table
I didn’t really know her at all and
She didn’t know I was either
We weren't really best friends
Until we became freshmans
But now I can see how lucky
I will always be

If I wanna cry she offers her shoulder
Lets me know I’m always worth more
Gives support for hours and hours at a time
Won’t let me give up a fight
If I’m scared she’ll be there to hold my hand
Says, It’s okay, you’ll get through this
And everytime that I get knocked down
She does it over and over again
That’s what I call a best friend

Time will take its tole on you
You’ll see the pain in your eyes
Throw on a smile, no one will know
Except the ones that know your bad side
The girl that is always there
Isn’t gonna let you fall
The girl that loves you so
Will always let you know

If you wanna cry she’ll offer her shoulder
Lets you know you're always worth more
Gives support for hours and hours at a time
Won’t let you give up a fight
If you're scared she’ll be there to hold your hand
Says, It’s okay, you’ll get through this
And every time that you get knocked down
She’ll do it over and over again
That’s what I call a best friend

The girl is there
Just reach out to her
The girl is here
No reason to be scared
The girl

If I wanna cry she offers her shoulder
Lets me know I’m always worth more
Gives support for hours and hours at a time
Won’t let me give up a fight
If I’m scared she’ll be there to hold my hand
Says, It’s okay, you’ll get through this
And everytime that I get knocked down
She does it over and over again
That’s what I call a best friend
