I turned away from hope
And tried to move alone
It all came upon me
To be soon overthrown
The past fell straight away
As I recovered to your care
The strength instilled in me
As though you were always there

You came right to me
As though you understood
You stood right by me
As I always thought you would

*chorus*
Friends may fade
To transform to something new
The past may change
And shift my focus to you
Throughout all this
I'm just trying to be
Completely honest to
All you've ever meant to me

I see her
And all she's done to you
All the hell she's raised
What she put you through
I know how you feel
I've felt the same inside
But God dammit Steve
It feels different this time

I came right to you
As though I understood
I stood right by you
To help through all I could

*chorus*
Friends may fade
To transform to something new
The past may change
And shift my focus to you
Throughout all this
I'm just trying to be
Completely honest to
All you've ever meant to me

Things like this have risen
To affect us in the past
They quietly destroyed
But never seemed to last
I know we've been through this
But this time it's for real
You might not like these words
But they're honest to how I feel

*chorus*
Friends may fade
To transform to something new
The past may change
And shift my focus to you
Throughout all this
I'm just trying to be
Completely honest to
All you've ever meant to me

You came right to me
As though you understood
