We Were Friends

Running away in the night,
watching the western sunset,
evening light disappears,
the sky turns to grey,
thinking 'bout how i'll write this,
memories fill my head,
the good times we had,
the times when things went bad,
this is just the way things went,
too late to choose a different path,
this road never seems to end,
how I miss you,
my dearest friend.

I lay here now, I close my eyes,
today is when tomorrow dies.
Nothing to wait for,
nothing to look forward to.
The thing that made me happy,
happened when we were.
But the past is behind us,
and the future doesn't look any brighter,
than how life seems right now,
how I want us back together,
friends, not enemies,
how I wish things would change.

Sadness fills the air,
from blue, to clouded skies,
friends breaking apart, they die,
Things that hurt us the most,
make us stronger for what lies ahead.
but even though our worlds are grey,
and things seem desolate,
the friendships gone,
this is strongest friendship,
this was the strongest friendship.
We hung out every day,
and talked about anything and everything.

We are friends,
we were friends,
but our friendship didn't last,
and our choices broke us up,
I will always miss you,
my dearest friend.
