             THIS IS A TRUE STORY



         (Dedicated to Billy Reeves)



It's amazing,

Time doesn't seem long.

But we've been best friends

for twelve years strong.



It's amazing,

Seems like yesterday

That I met you

On the playground that day.



It's amazing,

We were five.

And for twelve years,

Kept our friendship alive.



It's amazing,

That you and I,

We'd be best friends

'Til the day we'd die.









(Chorus)

Can't you see/ that you and me

this is not the way friends should be

I chose the truth/ And you chose to lie

This is why our friendship died.







  

It's amazing,

You were my brother.

Told you secrets,

I'd tell no other







It's amazing,

That until that night,

We went twelve years

without one fight



It's amazing,

I'd never see why,

That I'd think of you

And breakdown and cry.



It's amazing,

We'd talk everyday

But you won't even

Look my way



(Chorus)



It's amazing,

For almost a year,

I lied for you

With nothing to fear.



It's amazing,

What she'd hear about you

And she wanted to know

If the rumors were true.



It's amazing,

how she would say

"Is he cheating?"

and I lie "No way"



And it's amazing,

How much I lied

Then the truth came out

And I friendship died.



(Chorus)



It's amazing,

Time doesn't seem long.

But we were best friends

For twelve years strong.



And it's amazing,

How in one day

That twelve years

Could just go away.



(Chorus to fade)
