You are a sister and a best friend
all wrapped up in one.
Someone to cry with,
 and someone to have fun.
You are someone who loves
the bad part of me,
as well as the good
And you never make me wonder
If I’ve been understood
You are everything a sister
and best friend should be…
You are the reason I know what being close to someone means.
