Passed you in the hall today
It was good seeing you smile
Why don't you ever stop?
So we can chat for awhile.
Always been there for me
Each time I needed to vent
Lately it feels like I'm trapped
On a seperate continent.
What happened to how we were?
Secrets we used to share?
Silence settled in somehow
Now it's coursing through the air.
Left wondering what went wrong
Did I change too much for your mind to take?
Bet you're tired of helping me
Bounce back from every mistake.
Guess I was choosing roads
Guiding away from your direction
I was misled along the path
I lost all your affection.
Two different people now
Feel your disappointed gaze
Watch me walk away from you
I recede into the maze
You are immersed in happiness
Unaware of our lives drifting apart
I am wishing that things could be
Like they were at the start.
I long to feel close again
If only we could go back
Even with a time machine
Would I be able to get my life on track?
I am not the same person
I was the day I met you
But if you would look a little harder
There is still a glimpse of the me you knew.
This was written a long time ago about drifting apart from a close friend
