Friend

She's flipping through the pictures,
Of the years that have gone by.
She glances at his face,
Then turns the page and wonders why,
The road he had chosen
Has brought his life to this place?
And how the choices that's he's made
Could put a smile on his face.

When did our paths
Split away from each other?
Now you're a stranger
Much more than a brother.

But I remember the days
When we would sit and wish the time away.
And I will never forget
All of the hours that we laughed and played.
When we would sit and talk
Of all our childish fantasies.
Back then you knew 'we'
Was still a major part of 'me'

He could pass her on the streets
She's never know that is was him.
He doesn't look the same
Now the memory's growing dim.
I want to be the one
To help you turn your life around.
Cause it just seems that lately,
Deadends are all you've found
