once we were friends
always side by side
you laughed when I laughed
and i held you while you cried

summer nights filled with whispers
of dreams, crushes and hopes
"puppy love" and boyfriends
secret plans to elope

we were so close
there was a special bond
do you know or care how it hurts me?
to see that youve moved on?

sharing your secrets with strangers
unfamiliar laughter mingling with yours
new best friends and inside jokes
this never happened to me before

now when we pass in the halls
you with your friends, and me all alone
youre giggling and smiling
and my heart begins to turn to stone
