Lyrics
Verse1
It's been a long time since you walked through my door
But I keep hoping that I'll see you once more
When people ask me who I'm looking for I say
the best friend I knew
2. Though your face is just a memory
It's the face I really wanna see
When people ask me why that's gotta be I say
You're the best friend I knew
just about the best were you
Chorus.
And I know I'll keep searching for the rest of my days
And I know I'll keep looking 'till I find a way
to find the best friend I knew
Verse 3.
They say I'm holding to the past and I'm in denial
Though I don't listen and it makes me smile
It's true I haven't seen you for such a while
The best friend I knew
4.
Now I could understand why you're not here
If we'd parted and we'd cried our tears
Now I can't rest until you are near
The best friend I knew
Just about the best I knew
Chorus.
