You Don't Know Him Like I Do

Hey old friend, thanks for callin'
It's good to know somebody cares
Yeah he's gone, but I don't feel like talkin'
It might be just too much to bear
To hear somebody say it stops hurting
Or to hear somebody say he ain't worth it.

'Cause you don't know him like I do
You'll never understand
You don't know we've been through
That boy's my best friend
And there's no way you're gonna help me
He's the only one who can
No, you don't know how much I've got to lose
You don't know him like I do.

I can't forget, I'm drowning in these memories
It fills my soul with all the little things
And I can't cope, it's like a death inside the family
It's like he stole my way to breathe
So don't bother to tell me I'll stop hurting
And don't try to tell me he ain't worth it.

Cause you don't know him like I do
You'll never understand
You don't know we've been through
That boy's my best friend
And there's no way you're gonna help me
He's the only one who can
No, you don't know how much I've got to lose
You don't know him like I do.

You don't know him like I do
You'll never understand
You don't know we've been through
That boy's my best friend
There's no way you're gonna help me
He's the only one who can
No, you don't know how much I've got to lose
No, you'll never know how much I've got to lose
You don't know him like I do
Not like I do.
