Verso 1: Was it really years ago,it seems like only yesterday The last time that i saw you laugh at me and fly away I remember all the good times and the songs we used to sing Old friend we sure have missed you,but you ain't missed a thing Verso 2: Lord you should of heard the music and all the changes it's gone through But the funny thing is lately it keeps an easing back to you But there's always something missing,it'll never be the same Old friend we sure have missed you,but you ain't missed a thing Verso 3: They've been writing books about you and the stories that they tell Make you look like some kind of angel but we both know you as mean as hell I've had my share of hard times but i lived through the strain Old friend i sure have missed you,but you ain't missed a thing Verso 4: People talk about you after all this time You were many things to many people but you were a friend of mine I've been thinking about how long you've been gone,the things you've never seen Old friend i sure have missed you,but you ain't missed a thing Old Buddy we sure have missed you,but you ain't missed a thing
