Well the first time i remember walking home from school

You jumped the fence on dolphin road and i followed you

We tried our first contraband under the tires in that playgroundWe rode our bikes and got crazy picked up our guitars til our fingers bled

Every time i think back, makes me feel so alive

You′re my best mate

I'll always appreciate

Even when the lines are straight

Then we went off to college

You to the west me to the east

And you met your future wife on valentines day in ′89

When my father passed you were the first one to call

Everybody was spread out so damn wide it was easy to drop the ball

Every time i think back, makes me feel so alive

You're my best mate

I'll always appreciate

Even when the lines are straight

Well i know it sounds corny

I′d dive in the mud for you

You′ll always be my best mate yeah

One of the darkest days i remember April 30, 2010

I never did get that call you promised me back then

You're my best mate

I′ll always appreciate

Even when the lines are straight

Well i know it sounds corny

I'd dive in the mud for you

You′ll always be my best mate yeah

I dont know what else to say

Yeah we talked almost every day

Sometimes i dont know what to do without you
