My
Best Friend - How
I Feel
My Best
Friend
Where do I even start
You're the best friend I've ever had
I mean, who's always there for me
Whether I'm happy or sad.
You're the one who's there to listen
When I feel like rambling for hours on end
I guess that's one of the reasons
Why I call you my best friend.
When I have troubles in my life
You're the one who's always there
To help me to get through whatever it is
You're the one who shows you care.
You're one of the most outgoing people I know
I enjoy every minute we're together
But trying to figure out what you'll do next
Is like trying to predict the weather.
You're different from everyone else in the world
I love that about you
Never is my best friend
Afraid to try something new.
You're not afraid to show that God means a lot to you
I love how you continually want your relationship with Him to grow
When it comes to your committment to Jesus
You're one of the most committed guys I know.
That's something I really admire you for
Especially since you're a guy
It's so hard for guys to stand up for Christ
But I really don't know why.
You are such a sensitive person
You're the one not laughing or making fun
When I get upset at the whole world,
Pick up my stuff, and run.
It's so weird and unfamiliar
How when I talk to you I don't even think about what I'm going to say
Because I know you won't judge me for it
And I like it that way.
I don't think you'll ever truly comprehend
What you mean to me
You're my best friend in the whole world
I only wish you could see.
I wish you could see inside my soul
Inside my very heart
And see how much you mean to me
See that you take up a big heart.
A big part of my heart
A big part of my soul
A big part of my thoughts
A big part of my goal.
You're probably thinking
"What goal?" Right?
My goal for us to always be this close
What I pray for every night.
That may sound dumb, I know
But I can't imagine my life without you in it
Who else would be there to lift me up
When I feel like I want to quit.
Not just quit a game or sport
Buit quit living at all
When things aren't really going my way
When my life sort of hits a wall.
There you always are
Ready to pick me up off the ground
While I'm getting all upset
And you're not making a sound.
Once again, you're just listening
Listening to me ramble on and on
When everyone else in the world
Is long gone.
So now I thank you
For turning on me never
You're the best friend anyone could ask for
Someone I'll remember forever.
How
I Feel
One day I love you more than life itself
The next you're just a friend
The day after that, I love you a little more
And the next, it starts all over again.
I ask myself, "How do you feel?"
But seldom can I answer truthfully
Because I don't know how I really feel
But how can this be?
How can it be that I can't read my own feelings
That even I can't uncode my thoughts
You'd think it'd be so easy
Just like connect the dots.
So why can't I read my own mind, then
If it's such an easy game
Connect the dots was so simple
If only translating your thoughts was the same.
There is one thing I know for sure, though
You're a big part of my life
I love the time we spend together
At times I wish we were husband and wife.
But then there are the times
When I'm truly happy we're just pals
I can tell you anything and everything
I can talk to you like you're one of the gals.
Don't take offense to that
I'm just expressing how close I feel we are
Which creates problems for me
Every time I wish on a shooting star.
Should I wish for my feelings for you to go away
Or come with greater size
If I wish for more, then there's risk involved
But then again, there's the possibility for a prize.
A prize I could possibly enjoy forever
With it getting better each day
Everyday I get to look into your eyes
And kiss you when there's nothing to say.
If only I could guarantee you and me both
That my feelings for you would never fade
That way I'd know I'd never hurt you
Because of a bad choice I made.
A foolish decision I made
Because I was convinced I loved you so
But then found out I didn't
And had to let you go.
Tell you, "No, I don't love you"
And possibly kill a friendship of gold
All because I thought I liked you like that
But found it's not your hand I want to hold.
So, when my thoughts have made up their mind
I'll let you know what the decision is
But until then, lets just enjoy our time together
And keep everything like this
