An Old Friend of Mine

Today I did something

I never thought Id do

The choice, wasnt easy

But I had to

All the years together

All those cold lonely nights

I never thought Id be strong enough

To leave it all behind

Yeah, today I said goodbye

To an old friend of mine.Well it wont be easy

But its never easy

When you let down

The one you love

Theres someone at home

Who needs me

So Im givin up

She always knew the truth

Never left my side

Man a love like that

Only comes once in a life

So today I said goodbye

To an old friend of mineMy hands were shakin

And my knees were weak

As I poured my last shot

And I drank my last drink.

And I heard Freedom ring

When that bottle hit the floor

And I just walked away

Not needing any moreYeah, today I said goodbye

To an old friend of mine.
