CONFIDE IN A FRIEND by ANONYMOUS

First Line: WHEN YOU'RE TIRED AND WORN AT THE CLOSE OF DAY
Last Line: "BUT TO GET QUICK RELIEF, JUST CONFIDE IN A FRIEND"
When you're tired and worn at the close of day
And things just don't seem to be going your way,
When even your patience has come to an end,
Try taking time out and confide in a friend.

Perhaps he too may have walked the same road
With a much troubled heart and burdensome load,
To find peace and comfort somewhere near the end,
When he stopped long enough to confide in a friend.

For then are most welcome a few words of cheer,
For someone who willingly lends you an ear.
No troubles exist that time cannot mend,
But to get quick relief, just confide in a friend.
