An Old Friend
Bison B.C. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Over a year has gone by and we haven't talked and I
Extend my emotions out to you
And share the truth
I'm stuck between happiness with my kids
And online from you
I haven't forgotten you
Or our conversations
I may not get to feel that comfort anymore
But maybe one day my heart will find
You
Something
Anything
Please

Old friend, never lost or forgotten
Our friendship, although we haven't been in touch for a year, remains unchanged and holds a special place in my heart.
Over a year has gone by and we haven't talked and I
It has been more than a year since we last spoke, and I
Extend my emotions out to you
I am opening up and expressing my true feelings to you
And share the truth
I want to be honest and transparent in our connection
I'm stuck between happiness with my kids
I find myself torn between the joy I experience with my children
And online from you
And the lack of interaction with you online
I haven't forgotten you
Please know that I have not forgotten about you
Or our conversations
Nor have I forgotten the meaningful discussions we had
They have brought my heart joy in tough times
Those conversations provided solace and happiness during difficult moments
I may not get to feel that comfort anymore
While I might not experience that same comfort in the present
But maybe one day my heart will find
Perhaps in the future, my heart will discover
You
A reconnection with you
Something
Some form of communication or interaction
Anything
Any kind of contact or news from you
Please
I deeply desire
