I was hoping I’d find that person br The one I once knew you to be. br But the one I found that your life has made br Is not the one I thought that I would see. br br You’re not anything like I’d remembered br You’re different in many ways. br I can not place my finger on it br But I know I will some day. br br I might have changed in your view too br However; you’ve never mentioned so. br But if I had and it wasn’t good br I hoped that you’d tell me so. br br I know that years do change a man br Can make them better or maybe worse. br But with God in my life now my dearest friend br I choose to take Him over any friendship first. br br He has always kept his promises to me br Something you I’m sorry will never be able to say. br He never tells me good bye, fair well br His love for me doesn’t work that way. br br So all I can do from here on out br Is to love you from afar. br Because I am the way I am now br And you are now the way you are.
