My Old Friend

Lyrics

[Verse 1] My old friend, I recall The times we had hanging on my wall I would not trade them for gold Because they laugh and they cry me Somehow sanctify me They are woven in the stories I have told And tell again [Verse 2] My old friend, I apologize For the years that have passed Since the last time you and I Dusted off those memories But the running and the races The people and the places There is always somewhere else I had to be Time gets slim, my old friend [Interlude] Do not know why, do not know why Do not know why, do not know why [Verse 3] My old friend, this song is for you Because a few simple verses Was the least that I could do To tell the world that you were here Because the love and the laughter Will live on long after All of the sadness and the tears We will meet again, my old friend [Outro] Goodbye, goodbye Goodbye, goodbye My old friend, my old friend Goodbye, goodbye
