My Friend

My friend,
You’ve got a long way to go
But you should know
You don’t have to walk this road alone
You don’t have to go it all on your own
I’ll be with you to the end

My friend,
You've got a life left to live
Don’t let yourself lose yourself
You’ve got so much left to give

Oh, if only you knew
You’re worth so much more than you’ll ever know
Just know that much, it is true
And that I’m right here by your side

So don’t...
Run...
Don’t...
Hide your love
Away from the world

No, give it all that you’ve got
And it’ll give it back to you

My friend,
You’ve got a lot left to learn
Before you learn
How to learn
What you’re really here to learn

But there’s still plenty of time
And one day, you’ll understand,
I’m sure

But till then
I’ll be here by your side
To lend a helping hand
My friend

*Interlude*

Oh, my love,
You still have some way to go
But before you know it,
It’ll all be over with before you know...

So don’t...
Run...
Don’t...
Hide your love

Oh, don't...
Run (run, run)
Don’t...
Hide, my love

Oh, don't...
Run...
Don’t...
Hide your love
Away from the world

Oh, give it all that you’ve got
And it’ll give it back to you

My friend

Translates better when sung, but the lyrics meant enough to me to share them. Hope they might speak to someone. :)
