Taken from me
You, my best friend.
Tears fall from my eyes.
Stupid parents
Stupid me.
What did I do?
I'll sing these words for you
Once you come back
4 years hoping you will
You're taking over me.
You've forgotten about me.
You never came back once
I think about you often in my days
Theres so much I need you here for.
I never meant
For you to go away.
I'll sing these words for you
Once you come back
4 years hoping you will
You're taking over me.
This dream will bring us back
Singing this song on stage.
You'll remember me then and come to me
We'll be together once again.
But I'm sure you're in love with someone now
You're almost 23 years old.
I don't want you to be with someone else.
I want you to be mine once again
I'll sing these words for you
Once you come back
4 years hoping you will
You're taking over me.
I'll sing these words for you
Once you come back
4 years hoping you will
You're taking over me.
You, my best friend.
Tears fall from my eyes.
Stupid parents
Stupid me.
What did I do?
I'll sing these words for you
Once you come back
4 years hoping you will
You're taking over me.
You've forgotten about me.
You never came back once
I think about you often in my days
Theres so much I need you here for.
I never meant
For you to go away.
I'll sing these words for you
Once you come back
4 years hoping you will
You're taking over me.
This dream will bring us back
Singing this song on stage.
You'll remember me then and come to me
We'll be together once again.
But I'm sure you're in love with someone now
You're almost 23 years old.
I don't want you to be with someone else.
I want you to be mine once again
I'll sing these words for you
Once you come back
4 years hoping you will
You're taking over me.
I'll sing these words for you
Once you come back
4 years hoping you will
You're taking over me.
Author notes
The song Taking Over Me by Evanescence reminded me of the way my best friend Will and I were seperated 4 years ago by his mother because of a stupid mistake I made. I cry all the time about it because he was my best friend. I've always dreamed of going up to Seattle and performing this song with Amy Lee, sending out a message for Will to find me. And this is what the song inspired me to write.

WOW... i was totally awe struck... This is amazing how you turned this into your own... I hope to never be seperated from my best friends like the way you have as I can feel your hurt within your words...
I hope one day you will get the chance to tell your friend everything that you have lived with for the past four years... I hope you find him!
Excellent write and good luck!
