Album: Last of the Big Game Hunters
Hello, it's methe absentee
It's been so long Have you forgotten me?
Two busy lives and countless miles
Have that tendency on memory
Oh, it's been such a long time
It's so good to hear your voice on the line
All of your friends say they miss you much,
But they're kinda pissed that you haven't kept in touch
And when, to you, they did get through
They say you brushed them off,
And that's just not like you
They asked me if we still get along
I told them my views and dreams and my favourite song
Would shift and turn with the passing of time
But the one thing for certain
Is that you'd always be a friend of mine
Ran into your sister the other night
She said your new man's got you locked down real tight
She went on to say that you were a fool
For not nabbing me back in high school
These revelations caught me off my guard
The gist of her words hit me very hard
And the thought of you being treated unkind
Was double the blow
Because you've always been a friend of mine
Maybe you should come back home
If things aren't right
You might be better off alone
Is he there? Put him on the phone
I'll give him a piece of my mind
If he's messing with you
Then he's messing with a friend of mine
He must not have known
That he was messing with a friend of mine
I would do anything for you friend of mine
