Was it really years ago?
It seems like only yesterday
The last time that I saw
You laugh at me and fly awayI 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 thingLord, you should've heard the music
And all the changes it's gone through
But the funny thing is lately
It keeps on easing back to youBut there's always something missing
It'll never be the same
Old friend, we sure have missed you
But you ain't missed a thingThey've been writin' books about you
And the stories that they tell
Make you look like some kind of angel
And we both know you're as mean as hellWell, 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 thingPeople talk about you
After all this time
You were many things to many people
But you were a friend of mineI'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 thingOld buddy, we sure've missed you
But you ain't missed a thing
