a good friend of mine came to me awhile back, and wanted me to write a song about some stuff in her life. so naturally i was really excited about it because i love listening and trying to portray things as i see fit. i love when people give me song ideas and tell me stories because i really get to walk in their shoes for a bit. so she just let out a shitton of shit basically and i went to town sorting through it all. i like how it came out i think. its kind of the story of a girl whos struggled with relationships and its being told from the point of view of a lifelong friend WAY down the road. again, the only people who sees these are you and the band. feel fortunate. hope you enjoy! heres the lyrics too:
Have you ever had a friendship that
lasted for life?
However nothin passed that I already
got me a wife.
Two peas in a pod and the tightest of
tight,
Standing the test of time.
Back in school I was a secret admirer
of such,
but the only secrets were the ones that
were shared between us,
hearing love stories every tale of two
hearts,
it was enough for me.
(bridge)
She had long brown hair with such
beautiful eyes,
never had luck with the right type of
guys,
I couldn't ever figure out how she
remained all together,
but ignorance is bliss it was probably
for the better
(chorus)
she said,
Hey hey,
im gonna float along today,
nothin in this world can bring me down
right now,
and everything is gonna be okay.
Heyo,
I just want the world to know,
that my heart is stitched up and its
more than enough,
everything is gonna be okay, hey hey.
-----
I saw first hand when she was left
broken hearted,
by her first true love who said “till
death do us part” and,
thats when I held her close and said
she'd always be my star,
and that'll never change.
Seven months later she was at it again,
this time much more careful with a well
devised plan,
but she couldn't shake the spotlight
couldn't get outta the sun,
and I just stood by.
(Bridge two)
It was habits and hardships, trials and
tribulations,
workin everyday without a single paid
vacation,
they say its better to have loved and
lost than to have never loved at all,
a smile across my face every time she'd
call
(chorus)
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
Everything is gonna be okay
(chorus)
