Best Friend
Kid Wave Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are my best friend
Don't wanna lose you
I'm falling backwards
You're moving sideways
I hear you talking
I'm way too drunk now
Do you remember?
You were my best friend

And when I look back to those days
We were always in a haze
Flying high is such a dream
Like its always you and me


You are my best friend
Don't wanna lose you
Move through persistence
You see it coming
I hear you talking
Too far away now
If you remember
You were my best friend

You are my best friend
Don't wanna lose you
I'm falling backwards
You're moving sideways
I hear you talking
I'm way too drunk now
Do you remember?




You were my best friend
You were my best friend

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Kid Wave's "Best Friend" speak of a profound connection with a loved one, who is also the singer's best friend. The singer is afraid of losing the person, talks about moving backwards while the friend is slowly slipping away. The chorus repeats the lines "You are my best friend, and I don't want to lose you." It's evident that the friend is drifting apart, possibly because of the singer's wild ways, as it's mentioned that she is "too drunk now." The singer begs the question, "Do you remember? You were my best friend." It seems like the singer is desperate to hold on to the person, and it's evident from the opening lines that the bond was strong before.


The lines, "And when I look back to those days, we were always in a haze. Flying high is such a dream, like it's always you and me" speaks volumes of the memories shared by the duo. It appears that they were always having fun, living high on life, and each other. The lyrics' simplicity is its strength, and it's relatable for anyone who has ever held something dear and is afraid of losing it.
