   - Verse One -

I sing of the loved and the lost

Look back to a line that was crossed

The truth and a friend that it cost



   - Chorus -

If I could call back the words

Continue the lie, if only I could try

If I could walk down that road once again

Take back what I said, you might still be my friend

If I could



   - Verse Two -

I cling to each strand of the lies

A lifetime of compromise

The ache in my heart waters my eyes



   - Chorus -

If I could call back the words

Continue the lie, if only I could try

If I could walk down that road once again

Take back what I said, you might still be my friend

If I could



   - Verse Three -

Thoughts of you come like the tide

A coaster of hurt that I ride

A reflection of you, you tossed aside



   - Chorus -

If I could call back the words

Continue the lie, if only I could try

If I could walk down that road once again

Take back what I said, you might still be my friend



   - Tag -

Sleep will bring peace to my restless heart

Will be free to dream a careless dream.....

What made us friends before... Will make us friends again
