I've known you from the time we were ten Two little girls, it reminds me of when We'd wear our school skirts, and cycle around And eat each other's lunches on the school playground And history and science and math was fine But the first thing that really comes to mind Are all the silly sleepovers we had at mine Eating Maggi, but also drinking Pepsi pretending it was wine Those were the good days, But as we got older, life got in the way And I stopped returning your calls But what YOU didn't know at all.. Was I was stuck. And I wasn't free. I wasn't happy, I wasn't me. And I was holding a facade for the world to see But I knew, you'd see right through me I knew, you'd see through it all And I didn't know how to break the fall, so I never made the call But when my life was finally coming crash down And I had to learn how to swim, or I would drown All I could think of, was calling you But we hadn't been friends in a while, me and you I mean, sure, we'd seen each other a few times At a common friend's wedding in some reception line But I knew that I'd lost the right to call you my best friend I'd been so distant for so long, I couldn't even defend Why I was gone, But I decided to get in touch anyway Made a phone call out of the blue, and started rambling away But not before i cried and i cried and i cried, and then I could finally say How goddamn tough the years have been, I wanted to run away. And a part of me thought you might be upset, But I was wrong, and I should have known this from the outset. Because, instead, I found you at the other end of the line, Calmly saying "Take the next flight here. You will stay with me at mine". You said "my home is your home.. I'm always right here for you.. You said "I'm sorry my sweet girl.. for how hard things have been for you" You said "I've missed you so, but I totally understand. Because if I knew what you were living through, I'd give you the command To put an end to your situation without paying any heed And to restart a new life. there is no need To proceed and live a life just because you had agreed On "forever" a long time ago, but not all "forevers" succeed But i also understand, that you're not ready until you're ready To face what you know, and do what you're already About to do, and I'm so proud of you For choosing yourself, even if it took you a while to do. And I'm sorry that I couldn't see the reality behind your posts And I'm sorry that I didn't proactively reach out when it might have mattered the most And I'm sorry that I assumed we'd just drifted apart And I'm sorry that you had to deal with this alone, but this is a start Because when you come here, I will hug you so tight And we haven't spoke in years, but that's alright Because the kettle will be on, and we will chat through the night And you can vent all you want, but after that we might Skip away to the park and eat some cake And celebrate your freedom by Michigan Lake And catch up on all the years that have slipped us by And stargaze as we lay under the Chicago sky." Oh I can't wait to reminisce the old times when we had no care When a stolen packet of Maggi masala was the most scandalous affair But with this I'm also starting to be aware That life's ups and downs is exactly where I can understand who I can truly call "mine" And that some friendships even time can't undermine And as long as you're there for me, I think I'll be fine But thank heavens, we're old enough now to drink some wine.
