Never did I expect to end up here Through the trials of each new year I Tried my hand at calling you a friend But the reminders never seem to end They show me what we once had A recollection driving me so mad I know it may not be my place To gently lay lips upon your face But it is a thought I can not escape It brings out old wounds that beguine to gape I can not let you go I want so desperately to let you know Everything that you mean to me If only through these eyes you could see For a lifetime I'll be by your side There is no other place for me to reside I have come to this conclusion so long ago Together so much stronger we could grow This love that I proclaim for you This love old begging for chapters new I can not help but to follow my heart It can't help but to fall all apart As I long for my loves embrace I did not intend to become a disgrace I can not help who I am I can not help but to dam Never did I expect to end up here Through the trials of each new year I Tried my hand at calling you a friend But the reminders never seem to end They show me what we once had A recollection driving me so mad Even so long after the fall I can't help but wanting it all I can't help but come to realize You are where my everything lies Can't live as long as we face separation A patriot man who has lost his nation I can't help but come to realize You are where my everything lies

A Friend Within A Foe
Never did I expect to end up here Through the trials of each new year I Tried my hand at calling you a friend But the reminders never seem to end They show me what we once had A recollection driving me so mad I know it may not be my place To gently lay lips upon your face But it is a thought I can not escape It brings out old wounds that beguine to gape I can not let you go I want so desperately to let you know Everything that you mean to me If only through these eyes you could see For a lifetime I'll be by your side There is no other place for me to reside I have come to this conclusion so long ago Together so much stronger we could grow This love that I proclaim for you This love old begging for chapters new I can not help but to follow my heart It can't help but to fall all apart As I long for my loves embrace I did not intend to become a disgrace I can not help who I am I can not help but to dam Never did I expect to end up here Through the trials of each new year I Tried my hand at calling you a friend But the reminders never seem to end They show me what we once had A recollection driving me so mad Even so long after the fall I can't help but wanting it all I can't help but come to realize You are where my everything lies Can't live as long as we face separation A patriot man who has lost his nation I can't help but come to realize You are where my everything lies
