Fuimos Amigos
Mafalda Cardenal
We Were Friends
Sunday afternoons
And a movie halfway through
Two glasses of wine
And a story that
We're not gonna tell
'Cause it’s not true anymore
Two old friends
And a text me when you get there
So unfamiliar
That they don’t know how to love each other
Or even talk
Without yelling
Even though we were the same
Now we hate each other
We were two kids
Now we ignore each other
We were paths
Now we collide
We were friends
And now we’re just acquaintances
Who don’t say
Hi
Family dinners
Where you were just one of us
Missed calls
And a message that
I didn’t dare to send
So I wouldn’t bother you
And I know that
You search every day
For something to help you forget
The whole life
That got cut
In half
That broke
That never came back
That slipped away
Without a word
Even though we were the same
Now we hate each other
We were two kids
Now we ignore each other
We were paths
Now we collide
We were friends
And now we’re just acquaintances
Who don’t say hi
Who don’t want to talk
Who prefer to lie to each other
Than to tell the truth
And they hate each other sometimes
And want to kill each other
And don’t know how to love
And don’t learn
And start all over again
Hi
And they don’t want to talk
Who prefer to hurt each other
Before forgiving
And they hate each other sometimes
But love each other more
And if one day they talked
Everyone knows
They’d start all over again
We were two kids
Now we ignore each other
We were paths
Now we collide
We were friends
And now we’re just acquaintances
Who don’t say hi
