where did you go, my friend untrue?
why did you turn away from me?
I offered arms to comfort you
I made it clear that it was free
no strings attached, no binding tie
were we mismatched? oh tell me why
you never called to say hello
you never called to say goodbye
I'm left here fixed in firm jello
concerning friendship as a guy
with a girl I thought was true
I'd be a shoulder onwhich to cry
should you be feeling down and blue
was our friendship just a lie
a figment of life misconstrued...
you said you cared, you gave a damn,
but now you're gone, twas just a sham
were I not strong I'd fall into
a vortex complex over you
a mass of factory reject glue
that sucks the life that it sticks to
I understand the need for time to muse;
emotions that you have to work on through
the way that others offer their trite views
and seldom follow through on what they do
they crash and seem to jostle against you
like marbles when they chip and crack in two
and they either seem to hurt you or they blame you for abuse
but if we flow like grapes we'd squeeze into some juice
and as time goes on and trust is earned
each sudden dawn; a lesson learned
we'd have a wine that's sweet to date
that stood the test of time and fate
forgive me if I say too late
I don't mean to commiserate
but don't you think it's worth a try
to be a friend to such a guy?
perhaps you're not that strong
but this is where you're wrong
my friendship's strong and true
enough for me and you
