When you sat in front of me and cried
Where I truly wanted to be was by your side
Instead I stayed where I was, fixed in place
I couldn't even dare to look in your face

When you told me what was bothering you
I'm sorry I didn't know what to say
Now I know that you wanted me to tell you
Don't worry everything's gonna be okay

I realize that I was disappointing
It's truly such a bizarre feeling
You needed me to reverse your frown
Instead I had to go and let you down

Do you know how many times
I longed to go back to the past?
But instead I'm stuck looking for rhymes
I wish time didn't have to go away so fast

Now I know what you needed
I'm sorry I wasn't there to give it
All that you wanted
Was for me to be a friend
