You Could Tell
When I got sick You could tell And sat with me Until I felt better

When I needed you You could tell And you were there for me Until the very end
Nurse Jai
I’m Here
When the world is dark closing in with a heart of stone I want you to remember that I’m here You are never alone
I Said Yes
When I was asked to care for you I didn't think I'd be able to I had a lot going on But I still couldn't say no
You were excited or sleeping There was no in between Even when your energy was too much I still couldn't say no
For the innumerable times when you were there Exactly when I needed a friend Cuddling me when I was sad or sick I'm so glad I said yes
Even though you're gone And there's a hole in my life I look back on our time with love and joy Forever grateful that I said yes

No Need to Change
We're told all our life That the rain is miserable and dreary That no one really loves her Of her, we're supposed to be weary
The Ones Meant to Stay
You made a friend You grew close together Spending so much time living your lives with one another
