This song spoke for me, when I couldn't.   It allowed me a chance to say some things that were long overdue.   He cried when I played him this song.  I had never seen him cry, ever, until then. 
We both had teary eyes.  I believe by saying - some people might think that our friendship is black and blue, all torn in two - the song acknowledges that I did have strong feelings.  Yet, this song reminded me that I always knew that he came through for me many times and that he never intended to hurt me to the extent that he did.  In the same respect, the song allows me to say that I never intended to hurt him, either.

I knew him well enough to know that he was like me in many ways.  He, like me, harbored a great deal of guilt.  So, a little over a year ago, I felt intense sadness and regret  while I watched him struggle with the respirator tube.  I thought, "Wow, he doesn't know how much love I feel for him.  He doesn't know that I forgive him."   Well this song was my attempt to let him know how I felt.

I wrote down this song for you
A word or two
I thought that it would help
But it won't do

No it won't do
No not for you
This song won't do for a friend like you

Now people might look at our friendship and say
That it's black and blue
All torn in two
But that's not true

Because I always knew
And so did you
We always knew
That we'd come through
When we're needed to
I remember back when life was lonely
I remember back when the future was empty
And you came through
That's what you do

Now I don't want to say goodbye
No, not to you
That won't do
No, that won't do

Goodbye won't do
No, not for you
Goodbye won't do
No, it will never do
