My friend lay wide awake at night |
|
Too cold and tired to carry out the fight |
|
We talked so much back then |
|
When someone's gone you remember everything |
|
He called and told me something's wrong |
|
Somehow the wheels had all come off |
|
He thought he'd call to say hello again |
|
He said |
|
I remember yesterday |
|
The games we played and things that mattered |
|
Never thought those days would end |
|
I said |
|
I'm glad you called me up today |
|
I thought you called to say hello |
|
Now I know, you were saying goodbye |
|
I asked if he would be all right |
|
Said don't give up and sleep well, tonight |
|
Come over here my friend |
|
We'll laugh just like we used to way back then |
|
But still I knew something was wrong |
|
The way he sounded as he talked |
|
I said hold on until we meet again |
|
I said |
|
Remember yesterday |
|
The games we played and things that mattered |
|
You know those days will come again |
|
He said |
|
I'm glad I called you up today |
|
I think I'll come and say hello |
|
Now I know you were saying goodbye |
|
I waited days for my friend to call |
|
But he had already left |
|
Someday I'll see him again |
|
We'll remember yesterday |
|
The games we played and things that mattered |
|
And how those days would end |
|
I wish I could've made him stay |
|
I should have never let him go |
|
And I wish I had told him goodbye |
