One man— two dreams Mine, to feel alive And his, to see everything He says, “Come along with me” I fall into his world Of impossible things
Through time and space The universe reflected in his face He gives me the stars And with them, we can be raggedy with bleeding hearts
He is my best friend He is the best of men
One word: reckless He’s got a taste for adventure That leaves me breathless But he moves so fast I am losing steam I don’t know how long I can last
Through time and space It’s dangerous to keep his pace He’s fearless, but I’m on guard I’ve lost things, and I can’t Make him another scar
But he is my best friend He is the best of men He’ll be my guardian (oh-oh, because) He is the best of men
But I am lost, and suddenly Doubt creeps up on me Maybe I’ve got to grow up, move on After all, he was just a story in my head And I swore I’d never touch it again But it would be so hard after so long
I have put my trust in him (I think it’s time) He’ll follow me to whatever end (his or mine) Just one more glance, my raggedy friend (oh-oh, please know) Please think of me just now and then
You are my best friend You can’t know how much you’ve meant (don’t you forget) You’ll always be the best of men.
