My drifting nature

We used to be the best of friends
I wrote a song for you
Youd call me for no reason
Talk about tv and food
We used to be the best of friends
You read my horoscope
You said I wasnt anal enough to be a virgo
I said thats what I hoped
I admitted I was scared to you
I said I couldnt sleep
I told my jokes and they were bad
You laughed to humour me
We used to be the best of friends
We flirted but no more
Sometimes wed drop each other hints
That we would both ignore
But now were not the best of friends
We said wed always be
There was a night I shouldve kissed you
That blame belongs to me
cos you got a boyfriend, got a life
I guess he took my place
I started speaking to you less and less
Till you were just another face
But sometimes our eyes meet
Sometimes we look around
Then one of us will look away
I usually look down
The other night I was hanging out
Red eyes, wet hair
I looked across the circle
And you were sitting there
The moment lasted forever
The reefer round this time
I took the hit and passed it on
Inside I nearly cried
When I think about the friends Ive had
Forgotten faces in a crowd
The many times Ive bared my soul
Ive grown this old, Ive cried out loud
I looked at you, you sat in shock
I looked at you, you sat in shock
My drifting nature has got to stop
My drifting natures got to stop
I wrote a song for you
Youd call me for no reason
Talk about tv and food
We used to be the best of friends
You read my horoscope
You said I wasnt anal enough to be a virgo
I said thats what I hoped
I admitted I was scared to you
I said I couldnt sleep
I told my jokes and they were bad
You laughed to humour me
We used to be the best of friends
We flirted but no more
Sometimes wed drop each other hints
That we would both ignore
But now were not the best of friends
We said wed always be
There was a night I shouldve kissed you
That blame belongs to me
cos you got a boyfriend, got a life
I guess he took my place
I started speaking to you less and less
Till you were just another face
But sometimes our eyes meet
Sometimes we look around
Then one of us will look away
I usually look down
The other night I was hanging out
Red eyes, wet hair
I looked across the circle
And you were sitting there
The moment lasted forever
The reefer round this time
I took the hit and passed it on
Inside I nearly cried
When I think about the friends Ive had
Forgotten faces in a crowd
The many times Ive bared my soul
Ive grown this old, Ive cried out loud
I looked at you, you sat in shock
I looked at you, you sat in shock
My drifting nature has got to stop
My drifting natures got to stop
