Best Friend

[Verse 1] I miss your brain, the way you think But I don't miss the way you used to drink I miss our talks, the universal law You had a way of seeing through my flaws It's so confusing, I thought I met my match An intellectual with talent, what a catch You always said we'd be better off as friends It was inevitable that it would end [Pre-Chorus] Your picture's off my wall But I'm still waiting for your call And every man that walks through that door Will be compared to you forevermore [Chorus] Still I have no regrets Cause I survived the biggest test I cannot lie and I won't pretend But I feel like I lost my very best friend [Verse 2] I miss the countryside where we used to lay The smell of roses on a lovely summer day You made me laugh, you had a clever wit I miss the good times: I don't miss all of it You'd write me poetry, you had a way with words You said you wanted more than just a pretty girl Maybe I challenged you a little bit too much We couldn't have two drivers on the clutch [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] (x2) [Bridge] It's so sad that it had to end I lost my very best friend Not gonna candy coat it And I don't want to pretend I put away your letters Saved the best ones that I had It wasn't always perfect But it wasn't always bad [Chorus] (x2) [Outro] It's so sad that it had to end
