"My Best Friend" lyrics

I haven't heard about you in years
But I think about you everyday
You left town through the tears
And I left looking for fame

I always thought I'd find you
'Fore the road came to an end
And have the chance to tell you
You were my best friend

And when I dream, I dream of you
And when I lie
You're all that is true
And if I never see you again
I want you to know
You were my best friend

And there were things I never told you
There were things I never said
All those nights that I would hold you
There beside me in my bed

Now, I wish that I had whispered
Even one word at a time
Now, all I can do is wonder
And try to make it rhyme

And when I dream, I dream of you
And when I lie
You're all that is true
And if I never see you again
I want you to know
You were my best friend

Yeah, when I dream, I dream of you
And when I lie
You're all that is true
And if I never see you again
I want you to know
You were my best friend

I want you to know
You were my best friend
