Fuimos Amigos

Sunday afternoons
And a movie halfway through
Two glasses of wine
And a story that
We're not going to tell
Because it's not true anymore
Two old friends
And a 'let me know when you arrive'
So unfamiliar
That they no longer know how to love each other
And how to talk
Without shouting

Although we were the same
Who now hate each other
We were two children
Who now ignore each other
We were paths
That now collide
We were friends
And now acquaintances
Who can't decide

Hello
Family dinners
Where you were just another one
Missed calls
And a message that
I didn't dare to send
To not bother you

And I know
You search every day
For something to make you forget
The lifelong
That was cut in half
That was broken
That didn't return
That escaped
Without warning

Although we were the same
Who now hate each other
We were two children
Who now ignore each other
We were paths
That now collide
We were friends
And now acquaintances

Who don't say hello
Who don't want to talk
Who prefer to lie
Than to tell the truth
And who hate each other at times
And want to kill each other
And don't know how to love each other
And don't learn
And start over

Hello
And they don't want to talk
Who prefer to hurt each other
Before forgiving
And who hate each other at times
But love each other more
And if one day they spoke
Everyone knows
That they would start over

We were two children
Who now ignore each other
We were paths
That now collide
We were friends
And now acquaintances
Who don't say hello
