“There once was a time You turned to me for advice I was always so honest I hoped that would suffice I was there with you to laugh And held you when you cried You say I'm a bad friend At least I never lied I told you you meant the world to me What was going on You made it seem like you understood me I guess that thought was wrong I told you about my past You shared yours as well We created so many memories Now my heart is starting to swell I didn't want to lose you I tried my best to be true I'm sorry if you think I was wrong I was just being honest with you I'm sorry for caring too much That's just who I am you see I was tired of seeing you hurt I wasn't trying to be mean I'm sorry for always screwing up When all I try to do is make things right I didn't think that one thing Would end up in a fight I'm sorry, I really miss you But I don't know what else to say I really hope soon you will see And we can be friends again some day”
