You're My Best Friend

Juanita Du Plessis · Other Songs - Juanita Du Plessis

You placed gold on my fingers

You brought love like I've never known

You gave life to our children

And to me a reason to go on



[Chorus]

You're my bread when I'm hungry

You're my shelter from troubled winds

You're my anchor in life's ocean

But most of all you're my best friend



When I need hope and inspiration

You're always strong when I'm tired and weak

I could search this whole world over

You'd still be everything that I need



[Chorus x2]

You're my bread when I'm hungry

You're my shelter from troubled winds

You're my anchor in life's ocean

But most of all you're my best friend

You're My Best Friend
