Old friend of mine, it seems we've lost that race against time Old friend of mine, it's a shame I never knew if you're doing fine The way a stranger feels so familiar It's such a shame but who's to blame? When the job takes more than it gives away That's when i struggle to decide if there is any other way But the mind is fickle in the game it plays Did the needless second guessing, now I'm running late Then i wonder if the sentiments are even the same Am I worth your time or am I just another name Well then, whose call is it to make? We've got to make this clear so I can stop feeling this way And as the famous saying goes Make new friends but keep the old Cause those are silver and these are gold Those are silver and these are gold Old friend of mine, it seems we've lost that race against time Old friend of mine, it's a shame i never knew if you're doing fine The way a stranger feels so familiar It's such a shame but who's to blame? It's sad to know, that I don't mean as much to you like I did
