Best Friend

I miss your brain, the way you think.

But I don't miss the way you used to drink.

I miss our talks - the Universal Law

You had a way of seeing through my thoughts.

It's so confusing - I thought I met my match -

an intellectual with talent - what a catch!

You always said we'd be better off as friends,

It was inevitable that it would end.

chorus:

Your picture's off my wall,

but I'm still waitin' for your call.

and every man that walks through that door,

will be compared to you for ever more.

Still, I have no regrets

'cause I've survived the biggest test.

I cannot lie and I won't pretend

but I feel like I lost my very best friend.

I miss the countryside where we used to lay,

the smell of roses on a lovely summer day.

You made me laugh, you had a clever wit.

I miss the good times, I don't miss all of it.

You wrote me poetry, you had a way with words.

You said you wanted more than just a pretty girl.

Maybe I challenged you a little bit too much,

We couldn't have two drivers on the clutch.

chorus:

Your picture's off my wall,

but I'm still waitin' for your call.

and every man that walks through that door,

will be compared to you for ever more.

Still, I have no regrets

'cause I've survived the biggest test.

I cannot lie and I won't pretend

but I feel like I lost my very best friend.

Yet, I have no regrets,

'cause I've survived the biggest test.

I cannot lie and I won't pretend

but I feel like I lost my very best friend.

It's so sad that it had to end.

I lost my very best friend.

Not gonna candy-coat it and I don't want to pretend.

I've put away your letters, saved the best ones that I had.

It wasn't always perfect, but it wasn't always bad.

Still, I have no regrets

'cause I've survived the biggest test.

I cannot lie and I won't pretend

but I feel like I lost my very best friend.

Yet, I have no regrets,

'cause I've survived the biggest test.

I will not lie and I can't pretend

but I feel like I lost my very best friend.

It's so sad that it had to end.
