Ben

I had three quarters in my pocket just for you
I bought shirt with a message just for you
I gave up some good ideas just for you
Because I love you my brother, I do

I wrote a handful of songs to you
How your girl broke your heart
And how that paper airplane flew
We spent hundreds of hours being blue
Over music, girls, and Age of Empires 2

And every year I reminisce on how I'm blessed to be your friend
When I yelled and held up fists I regret cause I'd defend you
If they ever tried to fight you I'd be here just right beside you
Oh I'm thankful we're becoming men
And I'm thankful that I have you, Ben

Your sweater game's the best I've ever seen
And we spent summer working out and getting lean
We made a band, moved out, and plan to live out our dreams
When it's tough you make it better than it seems

Got a text all it said was, "dude"
And immediately I just somehow knew
Nfgn, or maybe Ben, or Will they made it huge
But all I know's we'll tour and hit the road real soon

And every year I reminisce on how I'm blessed to be your friend
When I yelled and held up fists I regret cause I'd defend you
If they ever tried to fight you I'd be here just right beside you
Oh I'm thankful we're becoming men
And I'm thankful that I have you, Ben

Oh don't waste your time
Thinking, "giving up is better"
'Cause it takes our lives
But the Father has a letter
Says He's wants us to keep on
You know, for Him He'll keep us strong
When it's tough, when you're tired, when you're blue
Just remember you got me to hold onto

And every year I reminisce on how I'm blessed to be your friend
When I yelled and held up fists I regret cause I'd defend you
If they ever tried to fight you I'd be here just right beside you
Oh I'm thankful we're becoming men
And I'm thankful that I have you, Ben
Yes, I'm thankful that I have you, Ben
