Your Own Best Friend- Mike Cionni

Your Own Best Friend- Mike Cionni

Words and Music by Mike Cionni

If you look into the pocket of your coat and find a neat handwritten note

That says “I Still Think About You”

Disregard and discard it for me please

Cause time has passed, and honestly, if someone asked

What was on my mind right then, I’d most likely say nothing

The only catch with loneliness is that you learn to be

Your own best friend, You can depend on me.

Day to day the pieces slowly fade away until I’m struck by your display

And it all comes right back in

All at once, cerebral rush, into my head

But it’s replaced by all the days I’ve laid to waste

Filling up the empty space, my polluted waters yeah

The only catch with loneliness is that you learn to be

Your own best friend, you can depend on me

When I do see you again will I feel like I did back then

Or are you likely to forget, pretending like we’ve never met

One another

If you’re cleaning out your closet and you find a folded letter, never signed

That says “I Still Think About You”

It’s not me, it could anybody

Know that everyday a moment’s set aside

It’s inherently implied that I still think about you

The only catch with loneliness is that you learn to be

Your own best friend, you can depend on me

When I do see you again will I feel like I did back then

Or are you likely to forget, pretending like we’ve never met

Will there ever come a time when I am gone from your mind

Or are you likely to forget, pretending like we’ve never met

One another.

    Mike! Your songs always get stuck in my head, I hear harmonies, and I feel inspired to write myself. I can’t wait to hear you put out a CD, I can already hear so many parts on these songs. Keep it up man.
