My Best Friend
by Green Eyes
My best friend Keith
Is the one I knew
The one I fell in love with
All those years ago
They told me to tell him
How I felt
But did I listen,
Did I care?
I've kept this secret
Inside of me for the longest time
He went away without a word
Without a call or a hug
Sometimes I sit and wonder
How it would be,
If you were here with me
They said you liked me
They said you cared
Why didnt you say this to me
Was you scared?
That's the reason I did not say
"I love you Keith"
I was so scared,
That i'd lose your friendship
Just by letting you know I cared.
Was it a mistake that I didn't say
"I love you Keith"
To your face?
I don't know,
And maybe never will.
All I know is I had my chance
And let it slip by through the years
Maybe it wasn't meant to be,
Maybe I should just let go and say good-bye
For all I know,
You are my friend
And first love
So in my heart you will stay,
For all eternity,
Till my dieing day
You gave me hope,
You gave me faith,
You gave me love till this day
My best friend was my first love
Maybe he will know
From the connection we had
A long time ago
