One Of My Best Friends

Some of my old friends are here

The light isn't good but their outlines are clear

I'm talking of solitude, silence and doubt

I try to escape them, they soon found me out

Some of my old friends are here

Some of my friends call today

They knew without asking I've thrown it away

My thought, word or deed almost likely all free

The person to run my affairs isn't me

Some of my friends call today

This smile may try to say we never guess

But they knew I lie by pretending

My world wasn't ending

I'm free but it's all for the best

One of my best friends is gone

Not knowing I watched her walkout where upon

The words I've been crazy to hold back before

Came crashing like waves on a white empty shore

And no one has ever loved anyone more

One of my best friends is gone

The words I've been crazy to hold back before

Came crashing like waves on a white empty shore

And no one has ever loved anyone more

One of my best friends is gone
