I thought that we were friends,
But I guess that I was wrong;
Because when I really needed you,
I found myself alone.
*****
I thought we were close together,
And we would never part;
I depended on you,
And you only broke my heart.
*****
Why did I depend upon you,
And think that you really cared;
Now I’m left out in the open,
Alone and oh so scared.
When I really needed you,
You turned and walked away.
And gave me no real answers,
At least not yet today.
There was a time that I remember,
When we were oh so close;
I remember how you cared for me,
That’s the thing I missed the most.
*****
When we were together,
It was the best that it could be;
But without you, I hunger,
I’m so blind and cannot see.
*****
Why did I depend upon you,
And think that you really cared;
Now I’m left out in the open,
Alone and oh so scared.
When I really needed you,
You turned and walked away.
And gave me no real answers,
At least not yet today.
Sometimes I still miss you,
And long to have you near;
Other times I’m angry,
And I am often full of fear,
*****
I wish I could just forget you,
And take this pain away;
But I’m not ready for that,
At least not yet today.
*****
Why did I depend upon you,
And think that you really cared;
Now I’m left out in the open,
Alone and oh so scared.
When I really needed you,
You turned and walked away.
And gave me no real answers,
At least not yet today.
