Once we were friends
Once we shared our thoughts...

One day, a butterfly will fly in loops
And the birds will sing their melody together...

You think you know me
When I pass you by...

Smiling has become a chore
jokes are so hard to find...

You once said that friendship was fragile
You said you'll handle ours with care...

The words I have held so long in my heart
Have broken free at last...

You were there, I was here
I was crying, you could see...

I'd love to hear your voice so full of life again
I'd love to tell you what I'm holding in my heart...

Confined to the four bleak walls
of the neighborhood hospital...

Just a flicker of sympathy replaced by a smile
Reassuring and yet sad and sorrowful in its own...
