Once upon a time
when we were once friends
you used to tell me stories
of how this would never end
you used to tell me of how
you would never leave me
but I was just blinded
why'd it take me so long to see
as time slowly went by
we somehow grew apart
we did nothing together
and it tore a hole in my heart
and then that time came
that cold October day
where at the park you told me
we had to go our separate ways
why did you do this to me
was our friendship not enough
when we first met
you didn't tell me splitting would be this tough
never did I tell anyone
but day after day I tried
to get you back in my life
but you said no and I cried
I found out who you were hangin' with
and suddenly became afraid
for doing drugs and getting drunk
was just a game they played
I invited you over
but you went with them instead
I'm sure you would've came with me
if you knew you would end up dead
you got in the car
and decided to take a ride
an open alcohol bottle
and your friends by your side
the tires on the car
in front of you squeal
you suddnly tense up
and grip tight to the wheel
the something happens
you can't stop in time
you smash into the car
and your life seems to unwind
they rush you to the hospital
and after riding in the ambulance for a while
they look at you
and pronounce you dead on arrival
I had a feeling that day
that just wasn't right
I didn't know what it was
until I heard of that terrible fright
and then on that day
when I heard you were dead
I just looked at mom
and then I said
I tried to stop him
I wanted him to be my friend
I know he would've come over
if he knew this was the end
but momma he didn't
and now he is gone
but momma where was I
when he crashed that dawn
I was hangin around the house
like someone like me should
I've never let a drunk person drive me
and now I never would
so just think next time
before you drink and drive
that this may not be
just a time to enjoy the ride
