My best friend
That's who you were back then
In the golden days of summer and red leaves of fall
Life threw us changes and now it feels like everything's rearranging
Wish I could go back to the good old days
When we were so small
You were standing by my side
I was telling you a secret 'cuz I knew you'd keep it
When I needed a reason, you helped me believe it
Those times the tears rolled down our cheeks from laughing, we knew we were catching on to something
You're such a big part of who I turned out to be
It all adds up
It all adds up
To the story of us
You feel so far away
I can tell by the look on your face
So I try to bridge this distance
But it doesn't seem to make any difference
I wonder if you miss me too
You were standing by my side
I was telling you a secret 'cuz I knew you'd keep it
When I needed a reason, you helped me believe it
Those times the tears rolled down our cheeks from laughing, we knew we were catching on to something
You're such a big part of who I turned out to be
It all adds up
It all adds up
To the story of us
No matter how hard I try, I can't remember a time when I didn't miss you or didn't wish you...

beautiful.
you always seem to post something that fits in with my life at the moment.
thank you ♥ :)
glad you can relate, amy! xoxo
oh melissa, i loved this one! i have so many friends from both high school and college who shaped my life, and it seems as if i hear from them less and less the more i miss them. i loved the chorus especially. you are so talented! thanks for this post :)
It is so true how when we are young it seems as though the good things will never change, that a best friend will be a best friend for life and you shall always go to one another's birthday parties.
This is beautiful and the image is lovely.
Hi Melissa,
excellent lyrics! Hope you have a guitar in the cupboard.
Aw, this is lovely - and so true, why is it so hard to stay in touch?
hahaha, i wish i had a guitar in the cupboard! :)
i've been thinking of old friends, too. love this!
This one needs to be set to music my friend. Pure poetry and completely hits my life as of late. Kudos.
