about

While living abroad, I made two really close friends and also brought them together as a couple. I slowly grew scared that I wouldn’t be their favorite person anymore because they would be each other’s favorite, and that’s what this song is about. Nothing prepares you for the moment you have to say goodbye to a family that you’ve made yourself. The hook tells you that despite my insecurities, I’m still happy to have met them. No regrets!

lyrics

I saw it coming
Right from the start
it didn’t scare me back then
I’m not that smart

Maybe you didn’t know it yet
You kept on denying
it didn’t make much of a difference
it’s still terrifying

I’ll be here while you’re there
If you have any time to spare
I hope you don’t forget me
I don’t think you will
And if you happen to move on
And someday I’m out of your life
Thank you for the friendship; it was
Nice to meet you

I’m glad you’re happy
Genuinely
Don’t worry about me
it was meant to be

I’m still here if you need me
I haven’t disappeared
Well maybe I have; inside;
I am what I feared

I’ll be here while you’re there
If you have any time to spare
I hope you don’t forget me
I don’t think you will
And if you happen to move on
And someday I’m out of your life
Thank you for the friendship; it was
Nice to meet you

Afraid and alone
Away and thrown
Make me out of stone
Afraid and alone

Afraid and alone
Away and thrown
Make me out of stone
Afraid and alone

I’ll be here while you’re there
If you have any time to spare
I hope you don’t forget me
I don’t think you will
And if you happen to move on
And one day you’re out of my life
Thank you for the friendship; it was
Nice to meet you
