What happened to that smile that I used to know?
What happened to all the hugs and kisses where did they go?
Are they nothing more than a fleeting memory
That does not fill the chasm between your heart and me?
What happened to those longing stares, stares of adoration,
While I was at work, or the store, or playing the Playstation?
What happened to the hugs that kept me from falling apart?
You're no longer around, and I won't lie, it's ripping up my heart.
You ripped up the apology I sent to you, or at least so I've heard,
But I know that deep inside my love is singing a song for you, like a caged bird
Every night before I go to sleep, thoughts of you race through my head,
And I long to see you again, but not like our last encounter, in a peaceful way instead.
And your presence always rests within me, for your voice rings through my ears
What happened to the times when I honored you, and you honored me, with numerous daily cheers?
The memories aren't fading, but they are darkend by the form of blood, sweat and tears.
How did I lose such a wonderous friend, there could none to replace you?
And though you don't believe me, I still care for you, yes, it's true.
Deep inside I know the painful truth, that I am here not wanting to move on
But you must admit there is no other jewel like you under the moon, stars or sun.
And you are already releasing, letting go of a painful history,
That painful history, I must admit, which was painful because of me.
I'm sorry for it, I truly am, and I hope someday you'll come to see,
That I just want to be your friend again, and I hope someday you will also want to be friends again with me.
