My Old Friend Lyrics

My Old Friend

My friend

My old friend

When I look into your face

I trace the stream

Of our lives

To the spring of childhood grace

I still recall

When our whole world

Was bathed in morning dew

I can see

That golden light

Still shining out from you

And the days go by just like highway signs

Catch a glimpse and then they're gone

But my friend, my friend

The road may end

But the love goes on and on

My friend, my old friend

Before my breath is gone

I want to sing

That golden light

Still shining on, and shining on

We rise up like waves

Racing to the shore

Then we crash and spray

And roll back home

To where we started from

And the days go by just like highway signs

Catch a glimpse and then they're gone

But my friend, my friend

The road may end

But my friend, my friend

The road may end

But my friend, my friend

My old friend

The love goes on and on
