lyrics

8th and 16th
Verse 1:
We’d laugh and joke life to the limit
We thought that we couldn’t fail
Constant parties that would never end
Till we finally lost a friend
I guess sometimes it’s better when people change
Chorus:
I still remember how you never turned away
When I needed you by my side
I was all alone
But how can you do this
It’s crazy to me
How you could give up almost everything
You worked your life for
You hit the ground and never got up
That’s when I knew you were gone
That’s when I knew you were gone
But I will never turn my back away
Never turn my back away
Verse 2:
Loyal friends are harder to find
I’m learning this day by day
The ones that mean the most eventually move on
But you never forget them when they’re gone
I guess sometimes it’s better when people change
Chorus:
I still remember how you never turned away
When I needed you by my side
I was all alone
But how can you do this
It’s crazy to me
How you could give up almost everything
You worked your life for
You hit the ground and never got up
That’s when I knew you were gone
That’s when I knew you were gone
But I will never turn my back away
Never turn my back away
Bridge:
We still miss you more than you’ll ever know
You decided it was your time to go X2
