If I could catch a rainbow, I would do it, 
just for you,And, share with you, its beauty, 
on the days you're feeling blue. 

If I could, I would build a mountain, 
you could call your very own.
A place to find serenity, a place just to be alone. 

 If I could, I would take your troubles, 
and toss them into the sea.But, all these things, 
I'm finding, are impossible for me. 

I cannot build a mountain, 
or catch a rainbow fair; but, let me be, 
what I know best, A Friend, who's always there. 

I promise to defend you, 
should the occasion ever rise,
And, I promise to wipe away the tears,
which might stream from your weeping eyes. 

Let me be the trusted Friend, 
the one that you know best.
I will never leave you, on that, 
you can surely rest.
