This entire time I've loved you

So much more than life.

And I knew that maybe one day

I'd want you as my wife.

But that wasn't possible.

Never could it work.

Because you and Mon drifted away…

Until that day at Central Perk.

I remember it so clearly,

So vividly in my mind.

Actually, I replay it every day

Constantly hitting rewind.

Your extremely beautiful wedding dress,

Those blue eyes full of tears.

Then I realized that I still loved you

After all those years.

So I acted as a friend

I'd catch you when you'd fall

Desperately trying to find my chance

Where I could have it all.

And then there was our fight.

Stupid Julie and her cat.

We shared that kiss. Oh! That kiss!

And I liked where I was at.

From then on everything blossomed.

It grew and grew and grew

And now you were a hat and a purse.

No longer were you a shoe.

But when I slept with Chloe

Everything went South.

And now I know we weren't 'on a break'

But back then I never shut my mouth.

The tears that were shed I don't regret

Because now I've got your back.

But geez- I was so stupid!

How much more mentality could I lack?

For some reason you forgive me, Rach.

You were my light in the dark.

Meanwhile we had that silly fiasco

Of that weird little guy named Mark.

But of course, I forgave you

And we became the best of friends…

Until that night in Vegas

Where we conceived a kid.

Oh how I loved my Emma

And how I loved you.

We both shared the feeling,

But our relationship never grew.

And then you got promoted.

To a store in Paris, France.

So we had another bonus night,

But I guess I'd blown my chance.

But I followed you to the airport

And confessed my love in there.

But you boarded the plane nonetheless.

I was just too much to bear.

Distraught, I went home

And then checked my machine.

You said you wanted off the plane,

And it was me you wanted to see.

"I got off the plane"

Those 5 words changed my life.

And now I have a woman named Rachel

That I can call my wife.

But I'll never forget the arguments

That happened between us two.

And I'll cherish the moments

When I walk in our door and say

"Hey you."
