Old friend
I've seen your face in a crowded space
And though I know it's never real
I barely have the words to say
How good it feels
To see the sunrise in your eyes and reminisce
On all the good times we had that led inescapably to this
The hourglass of time
Lies smashed beneath my feet
And the wreckage of my heart
Still stains my shattered sleeves
A third of this life you're gone
While we grow old, you're forever young
I don't know what I'd give my friend
Just to be young men again
