I don't know where to begin I don't know where to start Oh, I loved you once Though you loved me not I accepted that, of course Though it hurt a lot I was lonely then So, yes, it hurt, a lot You called me friend Your efforts, though, were sparse I guess, you felt there was no need Because you knew You were always in my heart I had hoped that, maybe Now and then you would share At least moments of your life But you never seemed to care You accepted me though And I, I trusted you This is how it all began And when at last you said That you honestly cared I believed that, too I believed you To be true Then came the tide And it brought a storm It was bad, so bad Like it had never been before I cried out in pain In agony and despair I called for your help But you were not there Like I knew, you wouldn't be I knew, you would not hear me Not in time, I knew And I, I accepted that, too I somehow made it Through that night I do not remember how Do not know how I survived And when, at last, you found The note that I had sent All you did was pretend That you didn't understand And you never came You never even called! How am I your friend When you do not care at all?
