ATLANTIC STARR - MY BEST FRIEND (click to download the song)

The first time I looked in your eyes I knew
There was something special inside of you
You awakened my passion and my curiosity
You were so sincere, I knew you’d be there for me

Ooh, you gave me joy that I never knew
You were so dear to me love me ‘cause I needed you
You’ve help me get through the worse times in my life
You’ve shared my sadness , my pain, my strife

Whenever I dream the impossible dreams
You assured me that they would come true
You stayed in my corner no matter what life would bring
And I pledged my love to you

You are the piece of the puzzle I need
To make my life full and complete
I love you so
And thanks for being my best friend

Ooh, just like the rain falling to the ground
You washed away my doubts and turned my life around
You made everything good in my life that was bad
Oh, you’re the greatest friend that I ever had

I want you to be right here beside me
Forever and a day
For you are my strength , you are my future
And I need you here to stay

You are the piece of the puzzle I need
To make my life full and complete
I love you so
And thanks for being my best friend

Oh, what did I give you
In return for the hope that you’ve given me
Just ask and whatever you want
It will be, it will be

You are the piece of the puzzle I need
To make my life full and complete
I love you so
And thanks for being my best friend
