More Than a Character

Sometimes people come into your life

And you don’t know how much they will mean

A friendship grows between the little moments More than what anybody sees

And ain't no things have changed between us two

Maybe things aren't what they were

But I hope you know the friendship I have Was never only

about her

I didn’t choose you for a role I didn’t choose you for

a part

The character was just a reason For paths to cross and start

You’re more than just a character to me More than someone playing

a part

I like you for the person that you are For the kindness

in your heart I cherish every conversation,

every laugh and memory And just because you played a character That's

not why you're important to me

I know that pasts can make things complicated

And sometimes people choose different roads But friendships shouldn’t disappear

Just because a chapter closed

I’m not asking you to change a thing

Or asking you to choose a side

I just want you to know that I appreciate The friend I’ve

had along the ride

You could’ve never played that role And you'd still be a genuinely

cool guy

(to me)

You’re more than just a character to me More than someone playing

a part

I like you for the person that you are For the kindness

in your heart I cherish every conversation,

every laugh and memory And just because you played a character That's

not why you're important to me

Because people aren’t the roles they play And friendships aren’t a scene

You're someone I appreciate I hope you know what you mean

You're important because you are you

And you're such a talented person

I will support you no matter what
