sorry to a friend

when a friendship ends on a drop of a dime.

no goodbyes, no text message. silence. which speaks louder than words.

nothing.

i don't know what happened. i hate the fear of unkown. like what did i do? are you still alive? did you move on and are you being a coward? what?

im probably one of the most easiest people to talk to. you can tell me anything....if i can offer advice, i will. if you need to vent, i will listen. if you need to cry, my shoulder is open to you. i will bring tissues, whiskey, cigarettes if that's what you need. i can eat an ice cream with you. im just that kind of girl. im smart, im not saying im einstein, but i am always curious. i have quick wit and an awesome sense of humor. im a great person to chat with. i tell storie. i think im a good friend.

im reminded today of one of my favorite songs but my guitar god, Edwin McCain. i love this man with my whole heart and his amazing lyrics and storytelling, makes me quiver. and he is so much fun to see him live and even the few times ive met him, he's grounded and a good conversationlist. his drummer has become a good friend. i honor and treasure their friendships

"Sorry To A Friend" lyrics
Edwin McCain

Sittin' on the edge
Looking for songs in a bottle
Talking with strangers who don't know my pain
Blurry eyed and burned out
Choking on more than I can swallow
Crack in a little voice called out my name

She said - Whatever happened to you
It's been two years where have you been
And I guess all my fears were true
The words were all gone the time's been too long
But I deserve to know what happened to my friend

Staring in her face
I see a past that still haunts me
The road where we split up is paved with the things I didn't say
We had wonderful times, but terrible timing
Now just leave her alone, I'll just be in the way

She said - Whatever happened to you
You took the coward's way out again
And I guess all my fears were true
The words are all gone, the time's been too long
But it's not too late to say I'm sorry to a friend
I'm sorry to a friend
Sorry to a friend

Like a stone in a stream
Life smoothes all our edges
'Til we barely make a ripple any more
But those times in my life will live with me forever
But we're not the same people that we were before
And I'm sorry for the smiles we missed and the times that I blew it
I've got so much to tell you
I don't know where to start
Maybe I'll find a way maybe you'll help me do it
'Cause friends like us should not be apart

And I'm sorry to a friend
Well now I'm sorry
