When we were kids, we would laugh
Run up and down the stairs
Bother the neighbours, stay awake twenty-four hours.
Remember, we had our own kingdom,
Though we were just servants to the one we admired.
That blonde haired girl from the first grade
I think everyone had a crush on her but it was us,
Who she spent most of her time with.
Gradually we grew up and our games became more adult-like
I could tell you were prefered, yet it was me who really fell for her.

Then there was that night at the lake where she confessed
Came in your tent undressed, i remember hearing her footsteps
And how she ran away getting rejected because of our friendship
Well, it was more than that for you.

She never returned, it was believed she drowned in the lake
I erased that part of myself, how i felt when we found out.
Lately, it's been coming back to me
I keep seeing her in my dreams, repeating that night
I don't know how to make it right, how to make it stop.

It's a shame how things have changed
Now we pretend still being friends
I know you're happy with your boyfriend
Sometimes i just wish those days didn't end -
I'm going now,
She's inviting me for a swim.
