I want so much to hold you
Just one last time again
My eyes are full of tears
You were always my best friend.

My heart is slowly breaking
Because I need you so
I promise that one day again
We’ll meet and never let go.

I need you here beside me
Your gentle face at the door
My eyes are red from weeping
My head is always sore.

You were my shoulder to cry on
Whenever I felt down
And now that you are gone from me
My face it wears a frown.

Sleep well my darling Freckles
I’ll love you to the end
Thank you for all you gave me
You’ll always be my best friend.
