we were best friends for as long as we both can remember
never ashamed for the fun or the trouble we were
we always were at our best when we never said never
i’d tell you everything
gone are the days when we couldn’t stop laughing
gone are the days when we would not speak
somehow we’d both make each other better
i want us together
once again
mothers and fathers make us in their image as we grow
what they can be is something only wisdom will know
i have grown into my own and i teach them forgiveness
you did all you could do
gone are the days when you could not be there
gone are the days when you’d show me how
here’s to your hand in making our story
a happier ending
once again
i don’t know if i’d have done it differently
’cause things are often easier to say than be
i have loved and i’ve lost and i’ve cost some plenty too
with what we say and do as we try or not, it is still true
you
are a part of who i am
and
i am grateful
once again
years ago i said, “i do” want to always be with you
i had no clue as to what would be “better or worse”
have i forgotten the tears and the trials that we knew
or was there something else
gone are the days when we’d get through it somehow
gone are the days when we would slam doors
although i’d know what i agree to now
i’d rather be with you
once
again
i’d love to have you here
once
again
but i know i will see you
once
again
