We´ve been best friends for as long as i can remember.
Growing up together, learning together, living together..
Now that you´re gone I´ve become empty.
I feel like my whole heart is missing,
and the sad part is, it will always be lost.

The truth is,
Ever since that day you left
I knew I´d never see you again.
And watching that truck drive away with all your stuff,
hurt more than i would have ever imagined.
All those years of friendship...
learning to swim, playing barbies, having sleepovers...
Those are over now.
And as these tears run down my cheeks,
I think of all the memories.

Do you remember that night
When we snuck out of the house
and ran all the way to the gas station
just to buy a candy bar?
I do.

Do you remember those loong hot days
When we would climb up hidden brick walls
and splash around in the "forbidden fountain"
in our underwear?
I do.

Do you remember swimming at midnight?
Where we´d lay out on those long green beach chairs
and "moon tan" in our bikinis
until our parents came searching for us?
I do.

I want to forget it all
more than anything in the world.
Because I know that somewhere
on the other side of the world,
you´ve already forgotten.
