Analysis of Our Friend Damyra
Maria Clavo 1958 (LA)
Nice and friendly is your personality
You're such a lovely friend to me
You're sweet as can be
When you play with me
There's always something for us to do
Because you're very true
That's why we love you!
You have pretty eyes
That's why we hate to see you cry
You have pretty skin & beauty within
You make me happy when you grin
You are my friend
You're smart, funny and
You bounce like a bunny
You are just as sweet as honey
You are a good friend to me
