When it's a time in life you need your "somebody" friend

I have been praying strange things lately. I haven't shared the context of these private times with myself and God because I don't think even those who are the closest to me would understand. In my recent battle with cancer I learned how precious time with those you love is, and how so often we take that for granted. The stage of thyroid cancer I had was quite progressed and had it not been found when it was I may not have the priveledge of sharing these thoughts today. Friends who have always been in my life truly closed ranks around me and expressed that my presence in their life meant something and I was so blessed by this.
I have not officially been declared cancer free and there are some indications to me that some symptoms may be returning. This fear is the biggest that has lingered in my heart and brain since the end of my initial treatment.
The prospect of the cancer returning is even more scary because in a moment of emotional diarhea I confided something to a friend of mine who has been a rock to me, during numerous times when my life has been upside down.
I just wish he would trust and realize that ultimately I want happiness for him in life, I'm not asking for a life long commitment of never ending romance..just a friend to be a "somebody" when I need a friend who knows me and doesn't try to fix or change me.

As these thoughts raced through my brain...a song came on my ipod that I wish I could share with this friend

Title: Everybody

So here you are now,
nowhere to turn
It’s just the same old yesterday
You made a promise to yourself That you were never gonna be this way
And the only thing that you’ve ever known is to run So you keep on drivin’ faster into the sun(Chorus)
But everybody needs somebody sometimes Yeah everybody needs somebody sometimes
You don’t have to find your own way out You’ve got a voice let it be heard
Just when it feels you’re on a dead-end road There’s always somewhere left to turn
So don’t give up now you’re so close to a brand new day Yes you are
And if you just can’t bare to be alone then I’ll stay

(Chorus)‘Cause everybody needs somebody sometimes
Yeah everybody needs somebody sometimes

Well maybe I’ve been too caught upTo see what you’ve been goin’ throughAll that I can say is I’m here now

(Chorus) And everybody needs somebody sometimes You know they do Everybody needs somebody sometimes Everybody needs somebody sometimes Everybody needs somebody sometimes Everybody needs somebody sometimes
