Songs That Touch The Heart

Alec Benjamin _ I Built A Friend

I build a friend
With three pieces of plastic and a pen.
I made him on the table in the den
I gave him my old cell phone for a head.
For a head..

And we spend holidays at my house.
And we left presents in a stocking.
And we bought bolts and things and strings and a new watch.
That's what he got.

And we had so much fun together.
We knew we'd be friends together.
We had so much fun together.
We had so much fun.

Then i left, for college in september.
And we wept, cause we can't be together.
So i kept pictures too remember my old friend.
My old friend.

Then i met.
This girl at graduation
And forget my oldest creation.
And i guess i'll see him next vacation.
Send my best.
I send my best.

And we had so much fun together.
We knew we'd be friends forever.
And we had so much fun together.
We had so much fun.

I came home.
Too find him on the table with a note.
Scribbled out in pencil and he wrote.
That he just wasn't stable all alone.
All alone...
Next too him an empty glass off water that he spilled.
All over the body that i build.
It fizzled and i popped and then it killed.
And then it killed..

And we had so much fun together.
We thought we'd be friends forever.
And we had so much fun together.
We had so much fun.

I build a friend...
