My wife is my true best friend and I was going to write a silly song about us but this week was the 1 year anniversary of the death of my best guy friend so he was on my mind this week...
lyrics
You left me here a year ago today
Now I saw your face in a dream
Your memory washes over me
And all I can do now is scream
I remember the days of your misguided ways
There was no end to see for miles
But it's funny now how time crept up
You're a victim of your struggles and trials
Oh
I remember the times that you said you were fine
But there was trouble deep in your eyes
You let no one in but you had that same grin
And a language spoken of lies
You knew every day I was a phone call away
But that was not what was on your mind
Bottles and pills and rolled dollar bills
Are the life on the thin white line
Oh
Why
Now that you're gone and you died all alone
I wonder could you have changed
The sun still rises and there's bright blues skies
And my thoughts are all that remain
Oh what a difference twenty years can make
We had the best of times and life was at prime
But in the end, it was yours to take
