Story Behind the Song
The song, written in early 2000, was a blend of Ellis' exciting songwriting and Kami's lyrical touch. Kami at the time was looking for her Sweetest Friend to come along. It was a beautiful dream.

THE SWEETEST FRIEND,
Music, by John Ellis
Lyrics, by Kami Watson & John Ellis
April 12, 2000
Running down to the corner, on the street where you live. For your sweet ready smile, all the gold I would give…….
Steam risin’ from pavement. It’s like a dream come true. Your laughin eyes look through me Wondering why I was so sad..
Chorus
Rain drops fell thru the nite
Permitting us time to dream.
Wishing that you were here
Our shadows dancin’ on the wall..
Sweet blue eyes of my dream, out there on the horizon. Oh, you’re calling to me, in echos from the mountains……Suddenly you’re here. Completely unexpected..Holding me so near. We dance without fear..
( Chorus )
Stayed up talking for hours, with a hope that is bliss. Seeing all of our future, in only one kiss...I know I’ve found forever
A love that never ends...To destiny I’ve traveled And found the sweetest friend..
( Chorus )
Look my way sweetest friend
Come dance with me forever
To destiny we’ll travel
Our love will last forever…
Forever I will hold you
And share my love with you..and give you lots of kisses..
You’re laughin eyes look thru me
For your ready smile..my sweet blue eyes will laugh with you..
RAIN DROPS FALL THRU THE NITE
PERMITTING US TIME TO DREAM
NOW THAT EACH NITE WE’RE NEAR
HELP US BOTH SLEEP TIGHT
AND FILL OUR EVERY NITE..
WITH LOTS OF SWEET DREAMS
