fond farewell

Dear friend, tell me, how have you been?

Do you remember the words we said?

The ones that we left in our heads

So afraid, but we played pretend

I always said you were a mess

What I meant to say is that I'd say "yes"

You and I together, at our best

And I never said it, had to respect it

But I can't stand this

I'd rather take the risk than lose you

I'd rather say these words to you

I love you, I love you

I love you more than oat milk and caramel

More than nicotine or getting high when night fell

I swear, we know each other so well

I can read your eyes, and they tell

That for me, you went and fell in love

In love, in love

And I know you've got him

And you've got your reasons, but they don't add up

In your heart, you're stuck

And it's all too much

Just

Just
