Once I had a friend
A true true friend
We swore we'd be friends
Till the very very end
We talked on the phone
Every chance we had
In the morning, at night
Just before bed
She knew me better than I knew myself
She knew me better than most
She was my whole life
From morning to night
We hung out every day
Always were together
Once I had a friend
A true, true friend
We swore we'd be friends
Till the very, very end
I never had a friend like her
She made my life a great big blur
Of fun times, of great days
Times when my life was a big big maze
She was my friend
My very best friend
So very unique
So incredibly sweet
She made the days go by so fast
They never would last
Once I had a friend
A true, true friend
We swore we'd be friends
Till the very, very end
A year came, a year passed
New days came at last
I never thought she'd change
She'd always stay the same
Until Middle school came
Just that word, just the name
Brings back memories, brings back reveries
I remember that day, I remember that year
No matter how hard I try to forget.
The memory lingers here, never going to disappear
Once I had a friend
A true, true friend
We swore we'd be friends
Till the very, very end
She became someone else
Someone very different
Someone I just wasn't used to seeing
Slowly but surely we started disagreeing
She made new friends
Left me behind
I later would find that I really was blind
To have her as a friend, to think she was kind
I trusted her, all those days
I trusted her, all those years
Once I had a friend
A true, true friend
We swore we'd be friends
Till the very, very end
I still see her from time to time
We never talk, never speak
Not like before, not like we used to
Never anymore
It took me awhile to stop being sad
It took me awhile to stop being mad
I always thought I did something wrong, said something wrong
But now I know it wasn't me, that drove us apart
It was her from the start
She could've stayed, could've chosen not to betray me
Once I had a friend
A true, true friend
We swore we'd be friends
Till the very, very end
Once I had a friend
A true, true friend
We swore we'd be friends
Till the very, very end
Once I had a friend
A true, true friend
