[00:31.94]I spent much of my life sheltered away
[00:39.64]Accumulating knowledge day by day
[00:47.00]But in the end what we leave behind defines who were are
[00:55.14]Without friends its all for naught
[01:33.43]They gave me a purpose I never knew
[01:41.17]Life lessons I learned from and grew
[01:48.88]Your smiling faces so caring and true
[01:56.46]A reason for living: all of you
[02:35.09]Thank you my mentor for helping me agree
[02:42.33]That without friends I'd never be free
[02:50.20]You knew more about myself than me
[02:57.80]And you opened my eyes and made me see
[03:21.27]They gave me a purpose I never knew
[03:28.63]Life lessons I learned from and grew
[03:36.35]Your smiling faces so caring and true
[03:43.96]A reason for living: all of you
[03:51.68]They gave me a purpose I never knew

I spent much of my life sheltered away
Accumulating knowledge day by day
But in the end what we leave behind defines who were are
Without friends its all for naught
They gave me a purpose I never knew
Life lessons I learned from and grew
Your smiling faces so caring and true
A reason for living: all of you
Thank you my mentor for helping me agree
That without friends I'd never be free
You knew more about myself than me
And you opened my eyes and made me see
They gave me a purpose I never knew
Life lessons I learned from and grew
Your smiling faces so caring and true
A reason for living: all of you
They gave me a purpose I never knew
Life lessons I learned from and grew
Your smiling faces so caring and true
A reason for living: all of you
