You Were My Friend

You came in my home and took from me

All that I had to give

I thought that we would be good friends

For as long as we should live

I had some past experience with

People just like you

But I never thought you were that kind

So what was I to do

You were my friend, you were my friend

You were my friend, you were my friend

How could you let me down?

You were my friend

How can you stand and lie to me

And look me in the face

I wish I knew what strange disease

Could make you act that way

All the things we did together

I've known you for so long

I always did believe in you

How could I be so wrong?

You were my friend, you were my friend

You were my friend, you were my friend

How could you let me down?

You were my friend

I guess for the sake of all we had

I should try to understand

But it just doesn't make much sense to me

To trust in you again

I wish we could forget it all

But I don't think that we can

Oh, why did this ever happen to us?

My best and dearest friend

You were my friend, you were my friend

You were my friend, you were my friend

How could you let me down?

You were my friend

Well I guess that friendships

All come to an end
