This is the present and I’m glad we are still friends.

I see it in your eyes, the way you look at me

 

I know that deep inside, you still care; that gets to me

 

I can’t help but wonder where it all went wrong

 

But in the past is where we don’t belong

 

It’s been said the past is the past for a reason

 

Although it’s nice to reminisce in due season

 

I like it where we are today – present friends

 

No one can take you from me now because my heart has no end
