Lyrics : Old Friend

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
