A Family Of Friends

You’ll find there’s a family of friends living here,
A small group of minds, and hearts
With some of us clever and some of us not
At times you can’t tell us apart.
There’s one who is cranky, and one who is shy
One who is really uncouth
And just when you think you have discovered
Who’s who.
You really uncover the truth.
The truth that we’re all just a little of each
A group of imperfects are we
And sometimes I might criticise them to me.
Cause the one thing that ties us together
For life
No matter how far we’re apart.
Is love for each other, a family of friends
A small group of minds and hearts.
