I sat down with an old friend    looking back on the years, let me pour you a beer, just one   Far away I can see the sun rays    touching down on a roof when we were one like a soul   Would we ever grow old and part our separate ways like a French braid   Clouds go by in many shapes in the route through the sun   Like all the people that are fickle, in and out they come   Make way through the hard times I bet you, yeah   Your old friends are the ones that never let go   Ran into an old friend   grabbed a bottle of wine, it's been such a long time   I've seen your face been stuck in the rat race   Caught up in the fast life   Let's sit down for a while    don't you remember the good times?   Back on the ground inside our home town   Crowds go by in many shapes in the route through the sun   Like all the people that are fickle, in and out they come   So long to the hard times, I bet you, yeah   Your old friends are the ones that never let go   Just so you know   Are you wasting your time?   You're walking around in a daze in unnatural ways   I catch a familiar face to let you know who you are   Who you are   Keep in touch with your good friends   You're more than the same   Won't you jump on a jet plane and fly away into another day   Stay a while we can just smile   We can crash on the couch   Take in all of the sounds that warm   Your old friends are the ones that have never let you down   Your old friends are the ones that'll never let go   Your old friends are the ones that'll never let you down   Your old friends are the ones you should never let go   Your old friends are the ones that have never let you down   Your old friends are the ones that you'll never let go
