Friends... don't let friends drink and drive!
I walk into that room and see you lying there.
I'm filled with so much emotion, needles in your arm.
Around your neck, I hang my lucky charm.
The man that made this happen, I never will forgive.
I hope that he stays shameful and lonely as long as he shall live.
He says he's sorry, but that will never do.
He was drunk and not to drive is what he should have knew.
He has broken so many truthful, loving hearts
But yours, Yours he has ripped right apart.
I hold your hand in mine and slowly start to cry.
This is not the right time in life to have to say good-bye.
My best friend is what you are, and that you'll always be.
I will never forget you, you'll always be with me.
I lay my head down close to your side
And think of all the memories running through my mind.
I hear a funny noise and look above your head.
No! This can't happen, you have so much ahead.
As the line across the screen runs flat
My heart breaks to a million pieces and falls upon my lap.
Six people in white coats run into your room and push me out the door. Devastated, I start to cry and fall onto the floor.
Help you, they could not. There was nothing more to do.
I just want you to know I care and I will always love you.
