We’ve lost the light that burned so bright somehow
The sparks are dying out
Strangers in the night-time, strangers in the day
So many things to talk about
But there’s nothing to really say
You were my best friend
I thought we’d be together until the end
We used to talk for hours about our favourite things
You’d tell me pretty stories where plain girls married kings
What happened to our fairy tale?
I feel the aftershock
As our foundations begin to rock
A seismic shift when hearts drift
You were my best friend
I thought we’d be together until the end
Is there anything left worth fighting for?
Where does the love go when it departs?
Am I holding onto something lost, is there a way back to the start?
Yesterday we were soulmates
Now we search for different things
To fill the void, where there once was love, we bought cars and fancy rings
You were my best friend
I thought we’d be together until the end
I’m still a believer in miracles, though I don’t know why
Until the last breath of us, I’ll pray we don’t die
Tell me that you’ll fight for us
Tell me we will try
To mend the broken pieces of us
I just can’t say goodbye
You were my very best friend
I thought our love would never end
