I don't suppose this is it, but it's a good song.

FRIEND AND COMPANION
(Si Kahn)

for Elizabeth Kamarck Minnich

I knew you were different
Right from the start
There was something about you
That captured my heart
I still remember
How quickly it happened
You are my lover
My friend and companion

Friend and companion
Lover and friend
Over and over
And over again
Who could imagine
That women and men
Could be such companions
Lovers and friends

We were so young then
Who could have known
We'd meet again
After wandering alone
All of those years
Who could have imagined
A lover could be
Such a friend and companion

Now we are older
Together at last
Freed from the demons
That haunted our past
Long as I live
I know I'll be standing
Right here beside you
My friend and companion
