First Best Friend
by Mark
Lyrics
(First verse)
I looked in an old yearbook just the other day.
And I saw a photograph of an old friend that I once knew from when we were kids in school.
(Pre-Chorus)
We were in the same class together.
Grew up closer as time went by.
Our friendship soon became a special bond.
(Chorus)
She was someone I spoke of from a long time ago.
A friend I grew close for years and years.
But then came a day where she moved away.
And I saw my first best friend disappear.
(Second Verse)
It began in the final days at the end of 6th grade.
Little did I know that this would be the last time I see her around.
Well the next school year came and it seemed as if I never saw her in the halls to say hello.
(Pre-Chorus 2)
It's become a daily thing to say hello to all my friends as I pass them by to the next class all the time.
(Chorus 2)
It's a friendship that turned into a bond that will never be broken as it became a stepping stone into something more.
My first best friend taught me that friendship goes a long way in life.
It was a lesson I learned that defines who I truly am inside.
I took it with me and turned it into a philosophy that I'm willing to share with all my friends that I stand with today to honor my first best friend.
(Bridge)
I've made it this far today with the friends I made through the years.
With the power of friendship I can make it to the top of the world.
Cause I understand what it means and what it's meant to me.
(Chorus 3)
The friends I made today will know when they read the words in this song.
They will learn how my life making friends all began and how it's lead to where I am today.
Cause when they see the photo of my first best friend they'll understand what I became deep inside.
(Final Chorus)
As I look at my yearbook it got me wandering.
Where are you now my friend?
Forever I still remember you for what our friendship was before.
Cause you understood that you are my best friend.
My first best friend.
