Before I had blinders
But now it’s so clear
The effect that I have on you
Just being here
My intentions are pure
I refuse to mislead
Just know that for sure
I am here when you need me
Your wounds have not healed
Cause you keep them fresh
It seems you can’t deal
With your pain and regrets
If only you’d see
The things I see in you
You’re a clown
(Yes, indeed)
But you’re kind-hearted, too
Forget about words
And a past you can’t change
Cause your eyes say it all
Your intentions – the same
It almost seems like
You try not to be
Or face or accept
The reality
That you are the man
You’ve become – not a fool
No, things can’t be undone
So use your past as a tool
Remind yourself daily
Of all you have lost
Then think of the blessings
Those losses have brought
You have evolved
Into a man
As real as they come
Intellectual, mature
But you still remain fun
Did you ever think
We could stay friends this long?
Our bond we can’t break
Cause it’s just too damn strong!
In years to come
I hope you will start
To see that you’re worth
That place in my heart
