Drifting Apart (June 29, 2004)

beginning a new chapter of my life

with lacking words of wisdom

going through life's motions alone

because no one seems to care



you used that stood by my side

but now you've left me here alone

i'm wondering where you went

or if you think about me at all



we promised to be friends forever

but forever must have ended

my very best friend just isn't around

somehow we've fallen apart



time just keeps on passing by

days turn into weeks and then soon into months

the wall between us getting higher

our friendship just cracking and falling



you promised to be there always

but now you're never around

too many times i've called you up

just to get the answering machine

yet another unreturned call



so now i just sit here waiting

for you to just give me the time of day

the friendship we once had is nothing

it's rotted and gone away



never once did we argue

or mutter an angry word

slowly we've just drifted apart



so i guess now is my final goodbye

although you will never know

that i've given up on being your friend

i've given it my best to heal this wound



but still i'll be here waiting

just for you to return my call

and i'll always wonder what i've done

to make you go away





always i will miss you

the many memories we've made

the way you made things ok

and the way we bonded every single day

but just most of all

i'll miss you just being my friend
