I had met you so young
and we grew so close
you were my first priority
i always loved you most

you were my best friend
and oh so much more
i never thought id lose you
now im just left cold and sore

i saw you suffer
knowing there was nothing i could do
i just screamed to the heavens
to please save you

i loved you so much
and i still need you here
you always wiped my tears dry
not i sit here and just cry

with each word i write
it kills me more inside
when people ask me whats wrong
i cant say i watched my best friend die

you were only 13
and he took your life away
a drunk driver drove toward you
he didnt want you to stay

i guess god needed you more
but now whos here for me
nobody can replace you
and my pain they cant see

i cried for hours
that slowly turned to days
i tried so hard to forget
but there is absolutly no way

i dont want to forget you
i want to forget the pain
i cant take it anymore
its slowly driving me insane

i have every memory
i replay every word said
remembering your last words
before you were laid in your coffin bed

the paramedics came
but there was no saving you
i regret never saying
how my feeling were so true

i love you so much
and forever i will
your beautiful blue eyes
i see them in my dreams still

your perfect body
and your flowing blond hair
i never did tell you
how much i did care

i sat by your side
for hours on end
beggin god to let you stay
you were my best friend

i heard the beeping stop
and saw the line form
the doctors told me you were gone
and i felt the tears form

i felt them well up
and there was no holding back
i cried and cried
for you i now lack

they did all they could
but there was no use
you lost too much blood
there was no saving you

im sorry i couldnt help
it just hurt too much
there was nothing i could do
i just miss your touch

i miss every thing youd do
and all the things youd say
i pray to god each night
to let me see you for just one more day

they had me speak at your funeral
there was so much i had to say
i was going to tell them how you were
how special you were each day

i could form the words
but the tears did flow
i told them i was sorry
then ran out the room

i still visit you
everyday for three years
and each day i speak new words
and form new tears

i love you my darling
and best friend for years
Rest in peace sweetheart
