I didn't know

Who would've thought you would've ended up as my best friend
Not many would have predicted you could make it to the very end
Trust and friendship I didn't think you could grasp
But I knew we equaled greatness, you do the math

I saw the potential when we first met
I still remember the spot, I will never forget
I wonder if time had played out different
Then I stop because something about this was meant

Maybe you were meant for greater things and maybe so was I
I wonder if I could ever replace you, you know with another guy
Could I truly care for him and support him the way I do you
Or is it just one shot, and that part of me is closed and through

Could I smile when he he is happy and cry when he gets sad
Will I care enough to inquire when it looks like he's getting mad
Will I anticipate his needs too and have a plan all thought out
Will I want the world for him and go and buy the mall out

Hmmm good questions, I wonder what the answers could be
I didn't know life would be this hard, somebody could've told me
I mean I wouldn't leave me hanging, left without guidance
I don't know the answers, I just hope that someone out there will help me find them.

Yesterday

I keep turning around but I can't seem to go back to yesterday
I can't resist the urge to look back, and can't wash the fear away

As long as I carry you in my heart, I can't seem to keep the tears at bay
If I keep re-living the past, for me there will never be any escape

Can't pin point of the source of the pain, but I know it can't go on
I wonder if you went away would it all just be gone????

What will do it for me? Maybe a replacement is needed.
But it would be impossible for another to go where you've already succeeded

We both know without each other we don't exist
And we can't resist allowing the other to be missed

Stuck in a perpetual circle repeating all that we have been through
But a repeat of the past is not what I want for you

If I had the choice to go back to yesterday, would I, NO, yea I said it
The past is sweet, but we both know its jaded.

I miss the feeling, the moment, the warmth that yesterday brings
The hope that when I wake up omorrow will be the same thing

I miss the security, the hope. the trust.
Knowing that together there was nobody greater than us.

I miss the idea of loyalty, honesty and truth
I miss all the things I use to see in you.

Maybe I would go back and re-live yesterday just to say that I did it
Maybe I could change the past if I would have been more willing.

... I don't know, but I do know that its too late
Because I see that today is trying to escape

And soon it will be tomorrow
And now I am afraid that it will bring more sorrow

Because then I will start to miss right now
And I'm in it, trying to save it but how

I can't let go but I don't see how I have a choice
I want to scream but someone has taken my voice

Why did yesterday leave so quickly
I'm not done I still have more in me...
