I miss your brain, the way you think 
But I don’t miss the way you used to drink 
I miss our talks, the universal law 
You had a way of seeing through my flaws 

It’s so confusing, I thought I met my match 
An intellectual with talent what a catch 
You always said we’d be better off as friends 
It was inevitable that it would end 

Your picture’s off my wall 
But I’m still waitin’ for your call 
And every man that walks through that door 
Will be compared to you forevermore 

Still I have no regrets 
'Cause I survived the biggest test 
I cannot lie and I won’t pretend 
But I feel like I lost my very best friend 

I miss the countryside where we used to lay 
The smell of roses on a lovely summer day 
You made me laugh, you had a clever wit 
I miss the good times I don’t miss all of it 

You’d write me poetry 
You had a way with words 
You said you wanted more than just a pretty girl 
Maybe I challenged you a little bit too much 
We couldn’t have two drivers on the clutch 

Your picture’s off my wall 
But I’m still waitin’ for your call 
And every man that walks through that door 
Will be compared to you forevermore 

Still I have no regrets 
Cause I survived the biggest test 
I cannot lie and I won’t pretend 
But I feel like I lost my very best friend 

Yet I have no regrets 
Cause I survived the biggest test 
I cannot lie and I won’t pretend 
But I feel like I lost my very best friend 

It’s so sad that it had to end 
I lost my very best friend 
Not gonna candy coat it 
And I don’t want to pretend 

I put away your letters 
Saved the best ones that I had 
It wasn’t always perfect 
But it wasn’t always bad 

Still I have no regrets 
Cause I survived the biggest test 
I cannot lie and I won’t pretend 
But I feel like I lost my very best friend 

Yet I have no regrets 
Cause I survived the biggest test 
I will not lie and I can’t pretend 
But I feel like I lost my very best friend 

It’s so sad that it had to end
