Old Friend

Was it really years ago

It seems like only yesterday

The last time that I saw

You laugh at me and fly away.

I remember all of the good times

And the songs we used to sing

Old friend we sure have missed you

But you ain't missed a thing.

Lord you should've heard the music

And all the changes it's gone through

But the funny thing is lately

It keeps an easing back to you.

But there's always something missing

It'll never be the same

Old friend we sure have missed you

But you ain't missed a thing.

They've been writin' books about you

And the stories that they tell

Make you look like some kind of angel

But we both know you're mean as hell.

I've had my share of hard times

But I've lived through the strain

Old friend I sure have missed you

But you ain't missed a thing.

People talk about you

After all this time

You were many things to many people

But you were a friend of mine.

I've been thinking bout how long

You've been gone the things you've never seen

But old friend I sure have missed you

But you ain't missed a thing.

Old buddy we sure have missed you

But you ain't missed a thing...
