I forgot how much I missed you
Until we started talking again
I've been through lots of painful things
But not many compare to losing a friend
You texted me a week ago
You tried to apologize
It wasn't your fault
(You liked looking in my eyes)
Said you found this jacket
In the picture, it reminded
Me of a 80s quilt
I said you should get it, you did
Adults keep pulling on our sleeves
Telling us to grow up
Keep only what you need
Well I needed connection
And I needed a friend
You were running low on those too
Maybe life's out to get us
Maybe they just don't care
I know it's easier
If I have you there

I'm glad we're friends again
