Array ( [sid] => 82583 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Pick Up The Phone [time] => 2005-02-02 00:52:45 [hometext] => Written after a call, from a friend I hadn't talked to in a while - There are very few true friends in life - and we gotta be thankful when we've found one [bodytext] => It's hard to believe, it's been so long
I'm amazed each time I find new ways to cope.
Time as it always does, has drifted,
Days' I felt would never end, were those spent alone,when I almost lost hope.

Kept dreamin' , all the same old dreams,
I prayed someday to feel, not so alone.
As complicated as each new day seems,
I know I can always pick up the phone....

And, call on my very best friend,
Relocate the part of me, I lost, that never had to fake a smile
Quit allowing the silence, cause these tears to fall,
True friendship demands nothing, only to pick up the phone,every once in a while.

Somedays I sit and ponder,,where it is my life should be,
Always thought I be doin' all I'd dreapt of by now.
But, I'm not even close to livin' up to those dreams,
Gotta keep believing I'll get there somehow...

It's never easy starting over,
Waking up another cold morning, alone..
Just me, the morning paper and a cup of coffee,
Thank God, if I just need to talk -
I only gotta pick up the phone....

And call up my very best friend,
Relocate the part of me, I lost, that never once had to fake a smile.
Quit allowing this silence to cause tears to fall,
True friendship demands nothin', but,to pick up the phone, every once in a while....

So, when I hear the phone ring, and your vioce is on the other end,
Brings back all the memories, of the times that we spent..
I feel a warmth in your voice, as you tell me to stay strong,
Giving me the will, to keep moving on.... [comments] => 3 [counter] => 162 [topic] => 16 [informant] => mbs [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => FriendshipPoetry )

It's hard to believe, it's been so long
I'm amazed each time I find new ways to cope.

I prayed someday to feel, not so alone.
As complicated as each new day seems,
