best friend
Look, i know i hurt you,
i know i did you wrong.
I don’t know what happened,
but baby it’s been so long-
since i wrapped my arms around you
and vowed to never let go;
and yet i walked away crying,
watching you drown in snow.
The blinding blizzard of anger,
of fear and disappointment
(disappointment in me, I know),
that swallowed you whole,
and doubled over left me bent.
I hid the pain inside,
because i was the one who did it all,
who left you there,
and didn’t even call;
i left with out warning,
rushed and in a hurry-
with no hint that it was coming,
damn everything’s still so blurry.
I can’t figure what happened,
why I left you standing there,
you hide it away inside,
hibernating it like it’s some bear-
but boy i see straight through you,
that’s what a bestfriend’s for.
Lets calm down and work things out,
before you get up and walk out that door.
Don’t stand up,
baby please, oh please, don’t go.
I need you more than ever,
don’t let this hate be your foe-
just hold me tight
forever,
and let me go
never.
