My Best Friend


They say the first love
Is the one you will always remember
I remember you
All the time
Do you remember me
I know you don�t love me
The way I love you
And it hurts so much
To keep this secret
To be best friends
Knowing I love you more
Than friendship
More than anything
But I must suppress my feelings
Because you will get scared
And run away
I�m the girl of your dreams
Though you don�t know it yet
I�m the one for you
Parading around as your
Best friend
Just as I think I�ve got it under control
Just as I think I�m moving on
I hear your voice
A memory arises
And the longing
The pain of my secret
All comes rushing back
Like being hit by a giant ocean wave
So powerful it wallops you out of nowhere
And I can�t tell you
Not now
Everything I�m feeling
It�s all real
I must let you in on my secret
I can�t let it go
I can�t let you go
Some day
On your own
You will know.
