cried again last night, I felt so alone
damaged spirit recalling memories past
thoughts of my parents, long since dead
my daughter, who has grown up so fast
the mistakes that I made, continue to make
friends that I have as well as those I have lost
I can see smiling faces and hear their laughter
but my best friend eludes me, I can't pay the cost
should one give heart and too forfeit their soul?
is the price too dangerous, too dear?
for pleasure far beyond this world
eerily haunting, feeding my fear
a new day brings me more questions
each night I shed yet more tears
I seem only to be digging deeper
as I fall further away with the years
can a woman's love become shattered?
that she could never forgive an old friend
has the foundation below become rotted?
that the cold and the anger can't end
is the saving of face all important?
compared to the joy that awaits
can we open our hearts, draw ourselves in?
is it over, are we too late?
I want you, do you still want me?
show me a sign should you agree
time passes quickly and soon may end
my dream, forever, as your best friend
