Our bond was so strong thrown away for drunken wrongs
We’ve drifted so far apart I don’t know where the hell to start

Like strangers passing in the night
For our friendship I’m now ready to fight

I never thought it would come to this
A hole in my heart where you used to sit

I felt a bit then I felt a lot we hurt each other it has to stop
Go back to how we used to be that bond so strong never breaking

Where’s my African queen this brown leaf once was green
I want you back in my life after all the tears and strife

It just ain’t right to say hello to “be polite”
What the hell is wrong with us? It’s ridiculous!

I miss the laughs we used to share still see you stoned in that chair
A grudge held to long just can’t be repaired

Too many people in my life that are never coming back
I’m not losing you too we’re both alive let’s open eyes

With open eyes we reconcile reminisce crack a smile
I know it’s been a while I can’t lie I’ve missed your smile

I’ve missed your smile heart jumped a mile at roller disco saw that smile
Heard that laugh felt that heart as wide and deep as the Nile

No more games or saying names I was in the wrong it’s been so long
Like Janet said you don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone

Our worlds were too far apart we knew it would never work
I remember when I told you I didn’t want to lose you

We shouldn’t continue now look at what we’ve been through
I’m not blaming you we both knew what we were getting into

Just need to get these words out my head and off my chest
And hope you hear this song coz when I talk it comes out wrong

So come on meet me half way there’s only so much I can say
This song’s an olive branch the roots embedded in my heart

Take a leaf from the branch let’s leave this in the past
The puzzle of my life’s missing a piece this is my offering of peace
