It Was My Friend

August 17, 1981

It was my friend who played with me. It was my friend who loved me. It was my friend who protected me from the older mean bullies next door. It was my friend who suggested, "Let's go to the playground." My friend was always there when I needed her. Nobody to go on the seesaw? My friend did it. It was my friend who played with me It was my friend who loved me, And it was I who loved her.
