Old Friends (2013 Remaster) Lyrics - Everything But The Girl

Not for the first time I look back 

on all those years 

Not for the last time names will ring 

in my ear 

When there was just a gang of us 

Storming the town by train and bus 

A moment of thought this heart sends 

to old friends

Not for the first time I look back 

on my first love 

Unable to speak or think or move 

hand in glove 

But what of it now and where is he 

He who once meant so much to me 

Because we are not, I can't pretend 

now old friends 

I was told love should hold old friends 

I was told love should hold old friends 

But when you leave you will close the door 

behind you 

Don't we always 

And time won't make amends 

to old friends 

Photos 

Standing here with my arm around you 

life's moved on 

And all its borderlines 

are being redrawn 

The winter has come the roads are white 

Everyone's home late tonight 

May we stay or will it depend 

as old friends 

In the end still old friends
