   After So Long We Talked

I didn't think you'd want to talk
After all it's been so long
I didn't think you'd talk to me
After the things that have gone on

The last few years have been bad
For me and my life
I'm still stuck in that job
That seems to rule my life

I now have my own home
But it's lonely as hell
My life really stinks
I wonder if you can tell

Over the last few years
A part of me has said
I wonder what your doing now
And how have you been

There once was a time
When I turned to drink
I thought it would ease the pain
Whenever life would stink

I even thought of suicide
It was the only option left
But my mind was changed
By a few close friends

As the wind blows through the trees
I'm here thinking of you
Over the years there's been a time
That I've sometimes thought of you

Wherever our lives take us
I'd like us to be friends
To tell you the honest truth
I've always seen you as a friend

I know you've had your share
Of pain and anger too
As a friend I want to say
I'm always here for you

Anytime you need to talk
Just prank me on my phone
You know I'll always talk to you
And help you if I can


For now though I have to go
There's one last thing to say
Thank you for talking to me
You've made a lonely man glad
