Best Friend lyrics

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

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

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

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 wrote 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

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

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

Yet 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

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

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

Yet I have no regrets

'Cause I survived the biggest test

I will not lie and I can't pretend

But I feel like I lost my very best friend

It's so sad that it had to end
