Growing Up Took My Best Friend Away

Never thought I’d know someone
That would change my life
Living like super heroes 
Playing god
Drinking wine

The one thing I didn’t count on
In this godforsaken town
Was we could lean on each other
When we were down

So put your arms around
My shoulders
I’ll let you lead the way
The things we remember
Will be present
Today
I don’t understand it
Not supposed to 
Anyway
Why growing up
Took my best friend away

To all the years to come
The mortgage and the kids
I hope you’ll find the time
My friend. 

So put your arms around
My shoulders
I’ll let you lead the way
The things we remember
Will be present
Today
I don’t understand it
Not supposed to 
Anyway
Why growing up
Took my best friend away
