I Lost a Friend

[Chorus]
On the day that I lost you
My mother thought we'd live forever
But I never thought you'd be another cross
From a brother lost on the side of the highway
And when I pass by, I can't help but ask why
I think about the last time I felt that feeling I felt before
On the day that I lost you, ooh, yeah
On the day that I lost you, I lost a friend

[Verse 1]
How did all the talkin' left a lot I meant to say
I meant to say, soul friend
And now when the leaves blowin' in the wind
I always think you're watchin'
Now that my phone don't ring as much, I know you're gone
Sometimes I close my eyes, I close my eyes and hear you talkin'
I don't wanna feel this hurtin' anymore, no, no, no
I don't wanna feel this burnin' anymore
I just wish we were smokin', I try to feel the void
But I can feel the void inside my heart that was broken

[Chorus]
On the day that I lost you
My mother thought we'd live forever
But I never thought you'd be another cross
From a brother lost on the side of the highway
And when I pass by, I can't help but ask why
I think about the last time I felt that feeling I felt before
On the day that I lost you, ooh, yeah
On the day that I lost you, I lost a friend

[Verse 2]
A man takes a drink, a drink takes the man
Why sometimes we have to die so young? Got me never understandin'
But sure as the alcohol reflects my face
My heart reflects the hurt I have for you now that you're gone
And I hear and I forget, and I still see and I remember
And I dwell in the past, still dreamin' of the future
And I fail to know exactly where I fall
And I decided I'd make every dollar for the ones I lost

[Chorus]
On the day that I lost you
My mother thought we'd live forever
But I never thought you'd be another cross
From a brother lost on the side of the highway
And when I pass by, I can't help but ask why
I think about the last time I felt that feeling I felt before
On the day that I lost you, ooh, yeah
On the day that I lost you, I lost a friend
