Lyrics

We skipped last period just to drive
The road ahead was open wide
I sang along with the radio
Your belief in me helped me grow

We'd talk for hours, let time slide
Poured out our hearts with nothing to hide
You wanted to guide me, and get me known
But I said no, had to stand on my own

We've been friends forever
We've been friends forever

I had a fire I had to chase
Needed to run at my own pace
I made it through, but not your way
And that still hangs in the air today

I'm sorry I hurt you which I regret
For too many years it's been unsaid

Heard you're in Tampa with kids and a view
Built something steady, like I knew you'd do
I think of you and all I owe
And I wrote this song to let you know

We'll be friends forever
We'll be friends forever
