I can't give solutions to all of life's problems doubts
or fears. But I can listen to you and together we will
search for answers
I can't change your past with all it's heartache and pain

nor the future with its untold stories
But I can be there now when you need me to care
I can't keep your feet from stumbling
I can only offer my hand that you may grasp it and not fall

Your joys, triumphs, successes, and happiness are not mine
Yet I can share in your laughter.
Your decisions in life are not mine to make nor to judge
I can only support you, encourage you

and help you when you ask
I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship
from your values, from me
I can only pray for you talk to you and wait for you
I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you

But I can give you the room to change room to grow
room to be yourself
I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting,
But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces

and put them back in place
I can't tell you who you are
I can only love you and be your friend
