I-‘ve Written These Words To Help You Know
The Love, Pain, And Hurt That I Never Did Show.
I Knew Your Cousin, My Best Friend Was She,
I Was Aware Of That Fact That You Didn-‘t Know Me.
After Some Time, She Introduced Me To You.
How Surprising That We Became Friends Too.
At That Time I Had No Feeling Of This Sort.
I Guess It-‘s Because – For Me You Were Short.
Not Only That, But You Were Younger Than I.
It Looked Really Funny When It Was Me You Stood By,
But After A While Of Laughter And Fun,
I Had This Feeling That I Knew Was Too Dumb.
I Started To Like You – I Don-‘t Know Why.
You Just Gave Me A Feeling That Made Me Soar High.
I Knew In My Heart That I Couldn-‘t Let You Know,
Because Of The Risk, I Kept It An Easy-Going Flow.
The Days After That, Our Friendship Was Great,
But Then I Thought, -‘what If I Was Too Late?-‘
I Gave It More Time, More Consideration,
In Order That I Would Make A Wise Decision.
I Knew You Wouldn-‘t Like Me; The Fact Was So Real.
But What Would I Do With The Emotions I Feel?
I Gave It A Try, But Not So Clearly To You,
I Just Thought That I Would Give You A Clue.
I Was Afraid If I Told You, My Newest Friend,
Our Fun And Laughter Would Come To An End.
Then It Came The Time To Speak My Heart,
Even Though I Knew That Our Friendship Would Grow Apart.
When I Told You That Day, You Took It So Well,
No Longer In That Decision Would I Have To Dwell.
The Weeks After That Went By So Fast,
But I Knew That One Day Our Friendship Would No Longer Last.
Soon I Started To Feel Nothing Like Before,
I Guess You Could Say I Liked You Even More.
But Soon After A While, It Started To Come True,
Farther Apart I Became From You.
At First I Didn-‘t Know What Was Going On,
But As Soon As I Stepped Into Reality, You Were Already Gone.
Now You Are Just A Picture, A Dream In My Mind,
But Trust Me At Times I-‘m Happy When It-‘s Your Memories I Find.
When I Remember Those Times And Recall Your Voice,
I Think Of The Past Because I Really Have No Choice.
I Tell You That At Many Times, You-‘ve Wiped Away My Tears,
And At Many Other Times, You-‘ve Thrown Away My Fears.
Please Don-‘t Ask Why Because I Can-‘t Exactly Say How,
But It Doesn-‘t Really Matter Because You-‘re Gone From Me Now.
Just Remember That At Anytime, Anywhere,
To Me You Could Look Because I-‘ll Always Care.
Even Though We Went Our Own Separate Ways,
I-‘ll Never Forget Our Happiest Of Days.
Tell Me Your Problems, I-‘ll Understand.
Tell Me Your Needs, And I-‘ll Reach Out My Hand.
But Now That-‘s Just A Fantasy, As True As It May Seem.
Yes, You My Old Friend Are Just A Dream.
For Always I-‘ve Wanted Your Hands To Hold,
Because I Wanted Your Friendship, It Was More Valuable Than Gold.
For One Year, There Were Things You Had Said,
That With Your Words And Love, I Was Led
To Show You Kindness And Gentle Care,
And To Treat In A Way That I Knew Was Always Fair.
I Wondered Many Times About The Friendship We Had
What Wrong Did I Do, To Make It So Bad?
I Gave Everything You Wanted, Almost Anything.l
