Great Companion Lyrics
It's not that you lost a friend
I just need some time to lick my wounds
I'll be out of service for a little while
I'm sure I'll be up and running soon
He's just an amateur these days
Not used to dealing with this pain
He's just an amateur these days
Never thought that he would see her go away
And our history will never be erased
You were a great companion
And some memories will never ever fade
So I love and so I hate
What we were I never knew nor did you
That's exactly what you hated
For three years you were confused
And for three years, my intentions left unstated
And our history can never be erased
You were a great companion
And some memories will never ever fade
So I love and so I hate
So this is the end..
Of an innocent era, an innocent era
I didn't want you but I did it's never over but it is
And our history will never be erased
You were a great companion
And some memories will never fade away
You were a great companion
And our history will never be erased
You were a great companion
And some memories will never ever fade
I just need some time to lick my wounds
I'll be out of service for a little while
I'm sure I'll be up and running soon
Not used to dealing with this pain
He's just an amateur these days
Never thought that he would see her go away
You were a great companion
And some memories will never ever fade
So I love and so I hate
That's exactly what you hated
For three years you were confused
And for three years, my intentions left unstated
You were a great companion
And some memories will never ever fade
So I love and so I hate
Of an innocent era, an innocent era
You were a great companion
And some memories will never fade away
You were a great companion
You were a great companion
And some memories will never ever fade

I heard this song as the coda on OTH the other night and I've fallen in love with it. I think this song is about two people who aren't really sure what they are to each other. Whether it be in the romantic or friendship sense. And one of them, the girl is leaving. Regardless of their uncertainty towards another, what they've done together won't be forgotten and the memories will always be there for the both of them.
All in all, great song.
I agree, but it really is also a slap in the face. It's insulting, much like telling a friend that a woman has a great personality when asked how she looks:) But that's how the ball bounces. Some get Shook Me All Night Long and others get lap dog companionship. That's when it's time to look for the person whose heart jumps beats when s/he sees you. Long overdue. L-o-n-g overdue. Thank you, Landon and Alehippler, for a very good song.

Heard it on one tree as well and I adore this song. Landon Pigg did really well on this song.
This song is too awfully familiar. "I didn't want you but it is... It's never over but it is." Landon perfectly captures the contradiction of 'breaking up' with someone you were never with.
oh gawd, i can relate to this song so much..
i agree with you alisha, he puts it in such beautiful words...
haha it's funny because at the end of december a guy, that i'll never know what we were, told me he just never saw whatever we were working out romantically and he'd understand if i never wanted to talk to him again or something and i basically replied with the first four lines of this song (never having heard it before) so i definitly relate to it.
in my case, i never really got to being up and running again haha
like so many others on here.. i'm listening to this song for the first time right now, and i'm just awed by how much this relates to me. its as if landon knew exactly what i've been thinking and going through and found the words to express it that i could not
i'm just shocked right now.. O_O
Fantastic track capturing an emotion that's often hard to decipher.
