[bodytext] => FRIENDS FOREVER?
We used to be so close, Share every hope and thought. Now we've grown apart, Did we give it our best shot? I try to shrug it off, When they say that I'm naive. But now the time has come, And I'm starting to believe. You came to be my best friend, When I wanted so much more. Now I would give anything If that we could restore. I want you in my life, To be there like before. To care about my thoughts And push me to be more. Always you were there for me In every little way. But now you hardly know me And that's tough for me to say To think I've lost my best friend, Is to admit defeat. It's not a thing I want to do, To say that I've been beat. Tell me all your thoughts and dreams, The way you used to do. I want us to be close again I hope you want that too. Now that we have grown apart, There are miles to restore. So say that you will walk with me And open that closed door. I want you as my best friend, To hug me when I'm sad. To share with me the good times And tell me when you're mad. There are things you know about me, That other do not know. Things that I can trust you with And know you will not show. Although there have been times, When I didn't think you cared, You'd always show me otherwise And guide me from despair. It's you that understands My hopes, my dreams, my fears. So why is it so tough for me To let you see my tears? Can you reassure me That we'll never drift apart? Or should I just let go And release you from my heart. As you sit here beside me It makes me so sad. 'Cause I sit here and think Of the love that we had. We've had good times together And been through so much Should we throw it away And completely lose touch? I don't want that to happen, I want to hang on. But if it's gonna be like this, I'll move right along. I don't want you to leave me, In such a quick haste. But I don't want to wait, Life's too precious to waste. The hugs that you lend me Always comfort my fears. But some things you do Only bring me to tears. Do you want what we had A short while ago? Or do you want to forget And not let it show? The path to love is long. Go ahead and take my hand. Together we will walk, Leave our footprints in the sand.

It revolves around a friendship I had with a guy that always seemed to be more about him than me.
