old friend
old friend it’s good to see your face
amazes me you always look the same
a few more lines here and there but so help me, i swear
still the same old guy you ever was
the more things change it’s good to have a few of you around
kind of like a well-worn pair of boots, i can slip right in and get comfortable
time hasn’t change a thing
we get older and we lose stuff all the time
friends die and some lose their minds
but when i sit down with you we talk about whats new
and leave the old stuff behind
we were rowdy, wild and adventurous, and we still are to some degree
but the escapades are closer to home and the police don’t phone
don’t know anyone looking for you or me
so i would just like to thank-you for your friendship
you know it means a lot to me
i can always count on you when i need a dose of reality and i hope i do the same for you
see at the gym or come over and we will try to remember a song or two
you where the better player and i was better at writing the song
and together we still just carry on
love you, old friend and it’s been good knowing you
