old friend

hey pretty
hope life is treating you with silver platters
and moonbeams
raindrops on roses
and whiskers on kittens
with the sound of music

hey lady
hope the red is still vibrant
and the stripes are still black
and the worlds still spinning
as i know your not coming back
hold on tight
to those ropes that we left
recreate all those moments
i know we loved best

feel the freedom life has given you
keep those tears from falling
and those ribbons tied in bows
hope you still wear your rainboots
when you go out in the cold

hey babe
take a walk on the wild side
rewrite our stories
and history at that
and make a better friend this time
one that will come back
and dont forget to hold your nose
up high in the air
and turn your back to anyone
who doesn't show you care
breathe when is necessary
but never stop
to check
check if your old friends are there
cause their never coming back
