Old Friend by Waylon Jennings Lyrics

[Verse 1:]
Was it really years ago
It seems like only yesterday
The last time that I saw
You laugh at me and fly away

[Chorus:]
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

[Verse 2:]
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

[Chorus:]
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
[Verse 3:]
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

[Chorus:]
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

[Verse 4:]
People talk about you
After all this time
You were many things to many people
But you were a friend of mine

[Chorus:]
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

[Outro:]
Old buddy we sure have missed you
But you ain't missed a thing
