My Old Friend

Last time we spoke, I was hurt When the dark clouds come over, I feel a struggle You, and me - we hit a wall just because Just like everyone does And I don't care for details anymore I just want to remember how it was before I know we didn't want a messy ending But sometimes you just can't help it I know we look back at this differently But I choose to think of you happily My old friend My old friend In distance we stood, apart Was it fear or nonchalance? stubbornness or disregard? I sit, tense in these words For many years holding back, many things to unpack But I don't care for details anymore I just want to remember how it was before I know we didn't want a messy ending But sometimes you just can't help it I know we look back at this differently But I choose to think of you happily My old friend My old friend We never did get our movie ending Maybe everyone has that one big regret Sometimes I bump into you on the internet And I fondly remember, I can't forget My old friend My old friend I know we didn't want a messy ending But sometimes you just can't help it I know we look back at this differently But I choose to think of you happily My old friend My old friend
