Sunday Tune

For you, mum!

"I may not be your best
You know good ones don't come by the score
You've got something missing
I'll help you look, you can be sure

And if you want to be alone
Someone to share a laugh
Whatever you want me to
All you got to do is ask

Thunder don't go under the sheets
Lightning under a tree
In the rain and snow
I'll be your fireside

Come running to me
When things get out of hand
Running to me
When it's more than you can stand

I said, "I'm strong, straight
Willing to be a shelter in a storm"
Your willow, oh willow
When the sun is out

A fight with your best girl
Prettiest thing you ever saw
You know I'll listen
Try to get a message to her

And if it's money you want
Or trouble halved
Whatever you want me to
All you got to do is ask

I said, "I'm strong, straight
Willing to be a shelter in a storm"
Your willow, oh willow 

When the sun is out

Shelter in a storm
Your willow, oh willow
When the sun is out

Shelter in a storm
Your willow, oh willow
When the sun is out

Shelter in a storm
Your willow, oh willow
When the sun is out"

A rather musical romp ending in friendship

This is friendship.
