Old Friend lyrics

Artist  : Renato Russo 
Song : Old Friend



 Send "Old Friend" Ringtone to your Cell 

 												
														   Everytime I've lost another
lover 

I call up my old friend 

And
say let's get together 

I'm under the
weather 

Another love has suddenly come to
an end 

And he listens as I tell him my sad
story 

And wonders at my taste in men 

And we wonder why I do it 

And the pain
of getting through it 

And he laughs and
says: "You'll do it again !" 

And we sit in
a bar and talk till two 

'Bout life and love
as old friends do 

And tell each other what
we've been through 

How love is rare, life
is strange 

Nothing lasts, people change


And I ask him if his life is ever lonely


And if he ever feels despair 

And he
says he's learned to love it 

'Cause that's
really a part of it 

And it helps him feel
the good times when they're there 



And we wonder if I'll live with any lover 

Or spend my life alone 

And the
bartender is dozing 

And it's getting time
for closing 

So we figure that I'll make it
on my own 



But we'll meet the year
we're sixty-two 

And travel the world as
old friends do 

And tell each other what
we've been through 

How love is rare, life
is strange 

Nothing lasts, people change
