Old Friends
I haven't picked up and dropped enough addictions
To excuse my fickle soul
My overactive, agitated mind lost the fight with my contentment
Long ago
If there's a god, god bless the boys who pull me up
From the lows
Praise Howlin' Wolf, Dylan
Praise Little Feat and Morrison
When my obsessions and deflections with the what could have been
Drive me out of my mind
When I'm pouring over pages and fixating on the endings that
Good intentions can't re-write
Well if theres a god, god bless the girls who always
Shine a light
Praise Etta James and Joplin
Praise Holiday and Franklin
Old friends, that bring a little healing
Old friends, there when you need them
Old friends
Old friends
When I'm distracted by the actions and decisions that I
Didn't take along the way
When the ghost of my regret haunts the high I can't forget
Because my heart won't let it lay
Well if there's a god, god bless the ones who always know
What to say
Praise Ben E King and Solomon
Praise Joanie and Wilson
Old friends, that bring a little healing
Old friends, there when you need them
Old friends, the kind you can believe in
Old friends
Old friends
Old friends
Old friends
Old friends
To excuse my fickle soul
My overactive, agitated mind lost the fight with my contentment
Long ago
If there's a god, god bless the boys who pull me up
From the lows
Praise Howlin' Wolf, Dylan
Praise Little Feat and Morrison
When my obsessions and deflections with the what could have been
Drive me out of my mind
When I'm pouring over pages and fixating on the endings that
Good intentions can't re-write
Well if theres a god, god bless the girls who always
Shine a light
Praise Etta James and Joplin
Praise Holiday and Franklin
Old friends, that bring a little healing
Old friends, there when you need them
Old friends
Old friends
When I'm distracted by the actions and decisions that I
Didn't take along the way
When the ghost of my regret haunts the high I can't forget
Because my heart won't let it lay
Well if there's a god, god bless the ones who always know
What to say
Praise Ben E King and Solomon
Praise Joanie and Wilson
Old friends, that bring a little healing
Old friends, there when you need them
Old friends, the kind you can believe in
Old friends
Old friends
Old friends
Old friends
Old friends
