Please Forgive Me
You're an old friend of mine, that I made myself believe in,
I did everything I felt in my heart, without looking for a reason.
We shared a friendship in our past, that my mind won't let me forget,
And I'm trying to save the good memories, and erase the bad ones I regret.

I did foolish things in my life, but we all have made mistakes,
I'm trying to earn our friendship back, and I'll do whatever it takes.
I want you to trust me, like you did back then,
And let me in your life once more, so we can just be friends.

I didn't mean the words that I said, that drove our friendship apart,
It was anger taking over me, for I was hurting in my heart.
I feel you didn't believe in me, like I believed in you,
And when people told me you trusted what you heard, I didn't know what else to do.

When I see you in the halls, I close my eyes and dream,
And picture what could have been, and pretend things aren't as they seem.
I felt what we shared together, was nothing more than a game,
And I decided that if I were friends with you again, it would never be the same.

Something was lost, that we needed the most, and it didn't feel right inside,
We couldn't continue our friendship any longer, if there was something we had to hide.
I have always been honest with you, and I have never told a lie,
I would never do a thing like that, to make us say good-bye.

Our friendship meant more to me, than most things that I've been through,
And now that it has been gone a while, I find myself still missing you.
Seeing you with all your friends, makes me feel so down,
Knowing that you're having fun, while I'm not around.

I can't deny the fact, that at one point or another, I cared about you,
But that's the special feeling, that makes a friendship shared and true.
There's no way in the world, that my mind will set me free,
Not if I'm not at peace with you, so please, forgive me.
