James

I still think about that lucky day

When our paths crossed out among the trees

Meeting by chance in the woods that way

Brought a lifelong brother right to me

You always wear that easy smile

With a patient heart that takes its time

Walking with you, mile by mile

I'm so glad our stories intertwined

'Cause you always know when to lift me up

When the weight of the world is pulling me down

You pour the hope right back in my cup

The most loyal friend that I've ever found

Through the loving grace that you always show

Even when I stumbled, you helped me see

James, I just want to let you know

Thank you for never giving up on me

We've spent hours out in the quiet night

Playing dominoes under the stars

Singing our favorite songs out loud

Just letting down our guards

You carry a wisdom that runs so deep

A steady rock when the wind blows cold

These are the moments I get to keep

A bond that is better than gold

'Cause you always know when to lift me up

When the weight of the world is pulling me down

You pour the hope right back in my cup

The most loyal friend that I've ever found

Through the loving grace that you always show

Even when I stumbled, you helped me see

James, I just want to let you know

Thank you for never giving up on me

You listen close and you understand

With a gentle word and a guiding hand

So patient and wise through the highs and lows

That's just the way your spirit goes

'Cause you always know when to lift me up

When the weight of the world is pulling me down

You pour the hope right back in my cup

The most loyal friend that I've ever found

Through the loving grace that you always show

Even when I stumbled, you helped me see

James, I just want to let you know

Thank you for never giving up on me
