Best Friend Lyrics

Today I let my best friend go

One of the hardest days I've ever known

He was scared and I was too

But it was his time and we all knew

You know it would have been 12 years today

He chose me not the other way

But guarantees ain't worth a dime

That's the thing about borrowed time

Is that you'll have to let your best friends go

It'll be the hardest day I know

But you'll be right there by his side

When it's time to spread his wings to fly

He was always smiling ear to ear

Like a superhero without fear

But he needed me and this I know

My best friend please don't go

But today I let my best friend go

It was the hardest day I've ever known

But now his soul is free to fly

My best for you I cry
