I found a photo album the other day
And I had to wipe a tear from my eye
My closest friend ripped away from me
Without even a chance to say goodbye.
Although we were young I still remember
Sesame Place and that trip to the shore
You taught me how to roller blade
Not only that, but so much more.
You were the one that got me in to Garth
The older brother that I never had
Sitting up talking late into the night
We never will again, and it makes me sad.
I still haven't a clue what happened
And no one has bothered to tell me
All I know is nothing at all
Except one day, our family ceased to be.
Even though you didn't live close,
You were my favorite partner in crime
I thought that it would all blow over
That everything would get better with time.
But now I'm here, almost grown up
And you're there, almost grown up too
You were not only my cousin, you were my best friend
And believe it or not, I really miss you.
