There was a time not so long ago
I never needed anyone I only thought about being a simple soul A lonely traveler along this road And then you came into my life Nothing purer simplified So when I needed you the most you knew And came to offer me your heart When all the others turned away you stayed There was a gentleness you gave away But a power from within You made it obsolete to have to win So what am I now to do? As I walk this Earth without you? Chorus So now I take this time And let tears fall from my eyes I remember what we were and then Remember what we’ll never have again I would do anything to be seeing you again. I miss you more every day But in my heart you’ll always stay Heaven’s Gained … My Best Friend Looking back I can recall the day I only shied away from you There was a chemistry; a you and me But it was locked and never freed And so we went our separate ways Losing life to be afraid The mischief in the games we played Chasing ‘round the hopeful dream We lived our lives you see; fulfilled the very best Ever smiling nonetheless For the laughter in the hopelessness Laid the pain to gentle rest So what am I now to do? As I walk this Earth without you? Chorus So now I take this time Let the memories fall from my eyes Try to build the dreams I’ve paralyzed So I hope I can be something in your eyes… Until we meet again Gather ‘round me now and then For Heaven’s gained … another of my best friends. Heaven’s Gained…enough of my best friends.
