Lyrics
Old friend, don't you know it's over? Old friend, can't you understand? Slap your back I can no longer I can only shake your hand It's been so long and things are so different Memory lane's a dead-end street Your present tense is reminiscin' I can't rehash it, I won't repeat You're not so sure about tomorrow You try to beg and steal and borrow Yesterday's sweet parting sorrow You hold it over my head like a rusty axe The good old days are good and gone now That's why they're good, because they're gone But our conversation turns to kowtow We kiss the past's a** all night long Old friend, don't you know it's over? Old friend, can't you understand? Slap your back I can no longer I can only shake your hand
