‘That’s what friends are for’, by Godwin Amunde

Though the song was first recorded in 1982 by Rod Steward for the soundtrack of the film, Night Shift.
The 1985 cover version by Dionne Warwick, Elton John, Gladys Knight and Stevie Wonder became my hit song while growing up.
I knew what the song was all about but lacked deep knowledge of the lyrics in the song until recently when the reality of that song dawned on me.
I used to think that I was the only child but you all proved me wrong. Mama had you all and you all gave her a befitting burial.
Words alone are not enough to express my profound gratitude over the support you all rendered to me before, during and after my late mother’s burial.
Your actions have taught me a great lesson about life and I will hold this revelation close to my chest.
No doubt, the task ahead was bigger than myself. But you all made it happened. I am indeed grateful
I am very optimistic that Mama is smiling and rejoicing with the Angels who have welcomed her back home.
My God will continue to supply all your needs according to His riches in Glory.
Thank you all for being there, for this is what friendship is all about.
