My Very Best Friend If only I had thought to speak, Had left a text or voice mail. If only I had gone to seek You down that lonely trail. If only I had known to ask What passes through your mind. But now that's all yet gone and passed. We left each other still behind. Goodbye, my friend, the best of us. You're doing better now, I trust. Without my weighing down your thoughts, You should be now where you ought.
