My Old Lover, My Old Friend Lyrics

My old lover my old friend

God it's good to see you again

I don't know where the hell you've been

But wipe your feet and come on in

Because it's been so long I barely recognise you

But it feels so good just to be beside you

Oh my old lover my old friend

God it's good to see you again

Because without your weight inside of my arms

There's an emptiness in my heart, oh

My old haunt my confidant

Where have you been hiding?

It's not behind the sofa

Or the other spots I used to find you in

And even though my shadow now is brighter

I still need you to navigate me through the waters

Oh my old haunt my confidant

Where have you been hiding?

Because without your company in my own

I've wambled and I've wandered and I've roamed alone

My old lover my old friend

Please don't say goodbye again

I know that we like to pretend

But I can't stand the silence

Everytime you leave I fear that it's forever

And I don't know how to be if not together

My old lover my old friend

Please don't say goodbye again

Because without you pressed against me

My worlds a single melody, hey

My old lover my old friend

God it's good to see you again
