Best Friend

I miss your brain, the way you think But I don't miss the way you used to drink I miss our talks, the universal law You had a way of seeing through my flaws It's so confusing, I thought I met my match An intellectual with talent, what a catch You always said we'd be better off as friends It was inevitable that it would end Your picture's off my wall But I'm still waiting for your call And every man that walks through that door Will be compared to you forevermore Still I have no regrets 'Cause I survived the biggest test I cannot lie and I won't pretend But I feel like I lost my very best friend I miss the countryside where we used to lay The smell of roses on a lovely summer day You made me laugh, you had a clever wit I miss the good times, I don't miss all of it You wrote me poetry, you had a way with words You said you wanted more than just a pretty girl Maybe I challenged you a little bit too much We couldn't have two drivers on the clutch Your picture's off my wall But I'm still waiting for your call And every man that walks through that door Will be compared to you forevermore Still I have no regrets 'Cause I survived the biggest test I cannot lie and I won't pretend But I feel like I lost my very best friend Yet I have no regrets 'Cause I survived the biggest test I cannot lie and I won't pretend But I feel like I lost my very best friend It's so sad that it had to end I lost my very best friend Not gonna candy coat it And I don't want to pretend I put away your letters Saved the best ones that I had It wasn't always perfect But it wasn't always bad Still I have no regrets 'Cause I survived the biggest test I cannot lie and I won't pretend But I feel like I lost my very best friend Yet I have no regrets 'Cause I survived the biggest test I will not lie and I can't pretend But I feel like I lost my very best friend It's so sad that it had to end
