Lyrics: Old Friend
Album: Unknown
Artist: Chris De Burgh
 

Old friend, so you’re in trouble again, you ask me today,
To try and find a little time, and maybe buy a glass of wine,
Old friend, i’m coming through…

Old friend, yes i remember you, always a smile on your face,
Oh memory from years before, an old man and a little boy,
Old friend, i remember you…

You used to take me fishing down by the wishing well,
One day you threw a wish in, and we listened while it fell,
And you made a wish…

"when the years are heavy, and my heart is growing cold,
Well i wish when the evening comes that there’ll always
Be…some old friend who’ll miss me too…"

Well i do, so old friend i’m coming through…
Yes, for you i’ll always find the time, we will have a bottle
Of wine, old friend, i’m here by your side, oh, to the very end,
Old friend…i miss you too…my dear old friend…
Old friend…old friend…
