Song Dedication: Stacie O'Connor

Are you lucky enough to have a friend that fate brought you?  I am that lucky.  Stacie O'Connor has been my friend for more than half my life.  She is the kind of friend that I don't need to see or talk to every day, or every year, but I know that my feelings for her are so deep and intimate, that proximity is not a requirement of our friendship.  Her love and friendship are so important to me, they are one of my most prized possessions.  I would not have made it through my early 20's were it not for her love and support.  I gave her this song when she went off to be with her husband, and I was afraid that because of the itinerant nature of my lifestyle, I would never see her again.  It is not really a song that either of us would love because of the style of music, but the words were perfect.
