I miss how close we used to be,
How open we could be with each other, a different kind of free.
I miss our long talks about anything under the sun.
We could talk about anything, never get bored, always having fun.
I miss the laughter and the jokes the most, always cracking me up.
I miss the way you knew me like nobody else ever could.
I loved how we could light up each other's day with a big hug or a smile.
Can you please help me to see, what happened in this short while?
Barely two months have passed, nothing happened, yet we only greet nowadays.
How did we go from inseparable to complete strangers.
Don't you remember?
Best friends for life, that's what we're supposed to be.
Grow up, get married, have kids, go out together.
Don't you remember?
I miss how close we used to be.
You're the only person who understood me, like no one else can.
You'd offer advice that always seemed to work, now who's going to do that.
Who's going to make me laugh like you did?
I miss how close we used to be.
Thousands of memories Stored up in my brain of all that we've been through together.
I will never forget the things you've done for me,
I'll always be here for you.
I miss how close we used to be.
