Mickey was a friend of mine
Though we hadn't talked in quite a while
I don't know why but we just didn't pick up the phone
But me and her were pretty close
Ten years ago we'd go to shows
Or cook spaghetti
Just stay in, lay on the couch
Rent video’s
And when she laughed the whole room laughed along
And when she laughed it seemed like everything was alright
Forget the weariness of your mind
Forget the daily dread
I know we’ll never travel back into time
We used to watch Back To The Future
One and two and three
For seven hours straight it was just Marty and Mickey and me
All those distant memories seem to pop up the last few weeks
So randomly, so sad, so haunting
So goddamn haunting
And when she laughed the whole world laughed along
And when she laughed you knew that everything was alright
Forget the weariness of your mind
Forget the daily dread
I know we’ll never travel back into time
But I’m glad she used to be a true friend of mine
