Old blues.

I watched my friend
get high that day
We never knew
just what to say
but if i could
go back again
i'd change it all
and try again.

Just one word spoken
to take back
we'd try it all
and change this track.
But if it weren't
meant to be
i'd cry my tears
take in my misery.

I watched you fall
down broken steps
into your hell
no forgiveness left.
There ain't a time
that i don't wish
thing could change
and you could live
in peacefulness.

You never knew
how much i cried
that day when
you chose that path,
you went away.
Never to return
no end to
that dark day.
I'll cry here to myself
and wish it away.
