I wrote this song for an old band mate. He fell in love with a woman who was emotionally ill. One day she said she had decided to go "catch the train" and she committed suicide.
lyrics
Started back many years ago
You met her while she was walking down your road
You must have needed some kind of high
Like a roller coaster she took you for a ride
And we waved goodbye
I miss my, I miss my, I miss my friend
I miss him, I miss my, I miss my friend
She took ya down that long and winding path
With all those twists and turns
Through her looking glass
She let you think you could play her game
Now that she’s gone, you’ll never be the same again
I miss my, I miss my, I miss my friend
I miss him, I miss my, I miss my friend
You called it love, we called it poison
I miss my, I miss my, I miss my friend
I miss him, I miss my, I miss my friend
You called it love, It was poison
I miss my, I miss my, I miss my friend
I miss him, I miss my, I miss my friend
