From Strangers to Kin

[Verse] Met you by the river where the willow weeps We were just strangers In shadows we’d creep Talking 'bout the dreams Buried deep within Never knew then We'd find a bond akin [Verse 2] Shared a flask of courage by the setting sun Stories flowing freely Secrets begun Laughed at the breakage Sighed at the whole Found a mirror in you Reflecting my soul [Chorus] From strangers to kin In the wind's soft spin Through the dust and the din Our friendship begins We'll weather the storms In sunshine and sin From strangers to kin We'll rise and we'll win [Verse 3] Walked a thousand miles Wore our soles thin Songbirds singing echoes The tales woven in Through the fields of sorrow Over joy's gentle hills Crafting memories that time never stills [Bridge] In the lonesome alleys In laughter’s light By your side I find peace in the night We’re the pages of stories No ink can define Two hearts entangled In verses and rhymes [Verse 4] Years roll like thunder Passing us by Silver threads marking The canvas we tie With each aging wrinkle Your handshake still firm Through life's fleeting seasons Our friendship confirms
