Drifting

I wrote a song about you,
But others might think 
otherwise. 
Although most of it was true
None of what I wrote were lies. 

It was about how we drifted 
apart
That year we weren't together
Like how it was at the start
We knew it might not last 
forever

But that didn't stop us from 
trying
The memories I gained and the 
friendship I lost
Never made anyone start 
crying
Because we both knew what 
was the cost

So as the years went on,
We regained what we both 
thought was long gone.
