Old Friend

Old friend, comrade of mine

Once again you're on my mind

There's always a place, there's always a time

To think of days gone by

We spent too long apart

And there's so much in my heart

I want to say before we say goodbye

Your life and mine entwined

With the music and the songs

Our future was set from the moment that we met

We were old long friends

The work that quit our play

Carried us away then brought us home

Brought us home again

Love's a game, you never made a claim

Or tried to play that game with me

That set you apart with your own place in my heart

Where you will always be

As a woman among men

It was hard to find a friend

Then you were there and with you I was free

We traveled far by scooter then by car

From Paris down to Rome

In Germany we clowned

In Switzerland broke down, we were so young then

We parted and we aged

But our rainbow didn't fade

We remained, we remained old friends

Old friend, comrade of mine

Once again you're on my mind

There's always a place, there's always a time

To think of days gone by

We spent too long apart

And there's so much in my heart

I want to say before we say goodbye

Now you are gone and like the music

And the song you've come in to my mind

It's a good we have done, ensures that we live on

You will never die

Your friends hold you dear

We'll keep you with us here

So never say, never say goodbye
