Old Friend by The Burns Sisters Lyrics
We grew up together as fast as we could
Both of us angry and misunderstood
We broke all the rules that got in our way
Not knowing or caring the price we would pay
With the luck of the young and the will to survive
Sometimes I’m amazed that I’m still alive
I’d do it again, it was worth every mile
What I’d give tonight just to see your smile
My old friend, where are you now?
My old friend
With the fire in your heart and your head in the clouds
Old friend
I wish you’d come around
My old friend
I want to see you again
Driving the back roads, chasing the moon
Sometimes we wouldn’t get home until noon
Whispering secrets, singing out loud
There were so many mysteries we wondered about
With nothing to lose and no one to blame
Dancing like fools in the Florida rain
Searching for truth and questioning why
I remember the night that you said goodbye
My old friend, where are you now?
My old friend
Making me laugh when life brought me down
Old friend
I wish you’d come around
My old friend
I want to see you again
For all that running ’round
I’m glad to be back in my hometown
And if I knew back then what I know now
I’d do it again, it was worth every mile
What I’d give tonight just to see your smile
My old friend...
Wish you’d come around
Both of us angry and misunderstood
We broke all the rules that got in our way
Not knowing or caring the price we would pay
With the luck of the young and the will to survive
Sometimes I’m amazed that I’m still alive
I’d do it again, it was worth every mile
What I’d give tonight just to see your smile
My old friend, where are you now?
My old friend
With the fire in your heart and your head in the clouds
Old friend
I wish you’d come around
My old friend
I want to see you again
Driving the back roads, chasing the moon
Sometimes we wouldn’t get home until noon
Whispering secrets, singing out loud
There were so many mysteries we wondered about
With nothing to lose and no one to blame
Dancing like fools in the Florida rain
Searching for truth and questioning why
I remember the night that you said goodbye
My old friend, where are you now?
My old friend
Making me laugh when life brought me down
Old friend
I wish you’d come around
My old friend
I want to see you again
For all that running ’round
I’m glad to be back in my hometown
And if I knew back then what I know now
I’d do it again, it was worth every mile
What I’d give tonight just to see your smile
My old friend...
Wish you’d come around
