When I asked you the way Out of here You told me that nothing you could say Would make me disappear And I guess I knew that you were right So we had a drink and then a fight Lasted the better part of the night I told you I wanted to be like The color and the light Filling up everything with The brightest kind of bright You just smiled at me The way you do When you don't want to break My heart in two And I keep looking back to you We take three steps forward Then a couple back Still be ahead of the game If not quite on track Color fades and light does burn But you will always be my friend Until the bitter end
