Hello, My Old Friend
(Lance Hatch)
Hello, My Old Friend.
I wake in the morning and see you again.
And, it always amazes me
just how long it’s been,
and how each time when I look at you,
boy, it feels like the first time again.
Hello, My Old Friend.
Hello, my old flame.
My heart still stops at the sound of your name.
From the first moment I saw you,
I knew our lives had been changed.
Now, each day is like a gift to me.
It’s like winning the most wonderful game.
Thanks to you, my old flame.
(BRIDGE)
Seasons pass like friends waving from a train
while the clock on the wall keeps track all the same.
Each day’s another pearl on a velvet chain
while each thought of you, another coin at the rainbow’s end.
So, goodnight, my old friend.
I fall asleep each night with you at day’s end.
And, it still amazes me
just how long we’ve been.
And, how each night when I dream of you,
it feels like the first night again.
Goodnight, my old friend.
I thank God for you, my old friend.
Sweet dreams, my old friend.
