My Old Friend Songtext
von Zoe Muth

If you leave tonight my old friend
Will I ever see you again?
If the grass is high and the river is low
How are you ever gonna get where you need to go?
The stars burn out but we still see their light
And you′re gonna be long gone before any of us knows what was wrong or right

It ain't about the time we′re losin'
Or all the things we'll have to leave behind
Now I feel like a leaf tremblin′ on the branch at summer′s end
Just waitin' on a little gust of wind to come and take my hand


It′s all right go on and do as you like
There ain't much here to hold you now but the peace that only comes in the night
We all knew there wasn′t much we could say or do
Except to drive you home when you got too drunk and hope the sun would see you through

It ain't about the time we′re losin'
Or all the things we'll have to leave behind
Sometimes when you look too close it ain′t the truth you find
And I′m waitin' on a little gust of wind to come and take my mind

It ain′t about the time we're losin′
And all the things we'll have to leave behind
Don′t push me 'cause I'm close to the edge
Waitin′ on a little gust of wind to come and take my hand
