Because Lyrics by The Slackers

0

Because you were my friend never shall we meet again
Because you understood only bad can come from good
Because you finally heard nevermore another word
Because...
Because I loved you most both of us must turn to ghosts
Because I loved you best all this love must turn to death
Because you were my friend never shall we speak again
Because...
'Cuz you're not near me and you can hear me
Because you hear me and you're not near me
If we had never met there'd be nothin' to forget
Because I can't pretend we should never meet again
Because you finally heard never forth another word
Because...
Because you hear me and you're not near me
Because you'll hear me and you're not near me
It's a good argument not to make another friend
It's a good argument not to fall in love again
