Best Friends

© jiva 2007

True friends are very special, and the loss of such a friendship is difficult to bear and sometimes impossible to understand. We can look back at old photographs, listen to old songs... but the questions stay unanswered and the memories still remain.

This song is on our album 'Best Friends' - you can buy the album from us at gigs and also from our jiva CD page where you can see the full track listing.

Jimmy and Val

We never wrote that novel, the one you said we should
We never solved our differences though I hoped one day we would
You kept my number in your phone, never made that call
Never had the chance to say farewell

We always said that we would be true friends come what may
We'd always talk the problem through, that's what we'd always say
But life moved on and people changed, time just passed us by
Never had the chance to say goodbye

Looking through old photographs, we were younger then
Seems like only yesterday we said we'd be best friends
Looking through old photographs, we were younger then
Seems like only yesterday we said we'd be best friends

We never thought there'd be a time we'd go our different ways
We'd never be so far apart with little left to say
Wishing it was yesterday and we could talk again
I always will remember you my friend

Looking through old photographs, we were younger then
Seems like only yesterday we said we'd be best friends
Looking through old photographs, we were younger then
Seems like only yesterday we said we'd be best friends

We never wrote that novel, the one you said we should
We never solved our differences though I hoped one day we would
I kept your number in my phone, never made that call
Never had the chance to say farewell

Looking through old photographs, we were younger then
Seems like only yesterday we said we'd be best friends
Looking through old photographs, we were younger then
Seems like only yesterday we said we'd be best friends
Seems like only yesterday we said we'd be best friends
