What happened to the girl I used to know?
The happy days; they seem so long ago
You swore it wouldn’t affect you
The day that you scorned so
But you’re an adult now
Trying to stay alive
And I just don’t know how
Our friendship can survive
Because now I don’t know you
Now I am confused
Everything I once knew was true
Sits in my mind unused
And I fear that we are drifting
Apart like he did from us
And I don’t like crying
But it’s so hard to suppress
Do you remember that time
When you’d just swing by
And I would climb
Into the truck with a happy sigh
Oh, your schedule’s always full
Barely any time for me
And it’s not like I can pull
You away with a plea
And now I don’t know you
Now I am confused
Everything I once knew was true
Sits in my mind unused
And I fear we are drifting
Apart like he did from us
And I don’t like crying
But it’s hard to suppress
How can it be?
That the onetime you’re free,
I have homework
Or responsibilities I just can’t shirk
‘Cause now I don’t know you
Now I am confused
Everything I once knew was true
Sits in my mind unused
And I fear we are drifting
Apart like he did from us
And I don’t like crying
But it’s so hard to suppress
So, are we drifting?
Leaving the happy days behind?
Will my life keep shifting?
Without the friend
I used to know
