I've had many things on my mind:
memories of forgotten times,
missing chances, some regrets
and looking at what I have left;

I'm no where near what I'd like to be.
because your not here next to me.
friends forever we always said,
I guess forever came instead.

I miss the fun we used to have,
all the times we used to laugh,
all the times we sat and stared,
never said a word and no one cared.

we fell apart and we chose our roads,
I messed up and your heart let go.
we knew we wanted more than friends,
but we traveled roads with different ends.

mine tried to hold but distance grew
until I lost my sight of you.
with every step I thought of "us",
in hopes "that day" would come to pass.

days and weeks went passing by
our roads would pass and we'd say hi
and then you'd walk away again
and I'd wave good bye to my best friend

occasionally our roads would cross
and we'd talk about the time we've lost
but only for a moment though
so we can head back down our roads

and every time I'd stand and wait
and watch you as you walk away
then I'd start my road again
as I wave good bye to my best friend
