We thought we would never have to grow up
We were young and dumb, like all kids
We played for hours on end
Never a second thought
You were my best friend,
But people grow up

We loved each other like sisters
Fought like a married couple
But never a second thought

You found out about the world and all its secrets
While I stayed in my imagination
You wanted to be older
I wanted to stay young
But never a second thought

Years went by, we were inseparable
Conjoined at the hip
What happened?
You started dating
Spent time with boys
Not me
Not a second thought

You became preoccupied
You didn't have time for me
But I stayed there
As each guy left

Soon it was too much
You got a boyfriend
Only wanted him
Let him say things
Distancing us

You changed,I couldn't be around you
You weren't good for me anymore
I lost myself in the madness
We split apart

It hurt at first, it did  
But in time
I realized that
I'm glad

Knowing you was one of the best things
i've ever known
But losing you
Set me free
