Hello girl.<\/p>\n

I see your back in town again.<\/p>\n

When you left<\/p>\n

you only called me a good friend.<\/p>\n

Tell me girl.<\/p>\n

Your several ages older now.<\/p>\n

Have you learned,<\/p>\n

maybe it was more somehow.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve heard tell<\/p>\n

you\u2019ve had several boyfriends since.<\/p>\n

Could be now<\/p>\n

you understand just what I meant.<\/p>\n

When I said<\/p>\n

It will all come back to you.<\/p>\n

Then you\u2019ll think<\/p>\n

maybe I have not been the fool.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We had something that would never end.<\/p>\n

A relationship upon which you could depend.<\/p>\n

I was there helping your heart to mend.<\/p>\n

There for the hard times again and again.<\/p>\n

If you only knew, I was so much more than a friend.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tell me girl<\/p>\n

you\u2019ve been burned, or so I have heard.<\/p>\n

It hurts girl.<\/p>\n

For that I have no helping word.<\/p>\n

Could it be<\/p>\n

you came home so you could lean on me?<\/p>\n

I heard girl<\/p>\n

you\u2019ve gone through hell , despite your charms.<\/p>\n

Did you miss<\/p>\n

the comfort you felt snuggled in my arms?<\/p>\n

Can you see<\/p>\n

that maybe it was meant to be.<\/p>\n

You ran away<\/p>\n

when what you wanted was here to stay.<\/p>\n

Your faithful friend,<\/p>\n

and so much more along the way.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We had something that would never end.<\/p>\n

A relationship upon which you could depend.<\/p>\n

I was there to help your heart to mend.<\/p>\n

There for the hard times again and again.<\/p>\n

If you only knew, I was so much more than a friend.<\/p>\n
