There's still a million things I wish I'd never said   And I know that it's never sacred   But the fear the shadowed yesterday still haunts me to the core   And I wish I'd had the state of mind to brace for so much more   But that's just me      God help me strip away what's come between the two of us   And maybe we can stay friends forever   Because you know me inside out   And it breaks my heart to pass without a word   After all this time      I'm the one who stood beside you on your wedding day   I don't think I've ever been so proud   But I allowed myself to slip away and the air became unkind   And now even though we've made our peace   We still can't make the time   And that's just us      Grown tired of building fences   So sick of silent walls   When I feel just like a traitor to it all   I hope you hear it someday   I'll be a better friend   Because I want you there in the end   Too high a price to pay   Without a thing to say   I know I'm better by your side   Than I'll ever be alone   Without a thing to say
