Old Friend Lyrics - Singles - Peggy Seeger

Old friend, comrade of mine 

Once again you're on my mind 

There's always a place, there's always a time 

To think of days gone by 

We spent too long apart 

And there's so much in my heart 

I want to say before we say goodbye 

Your life and mine entwined 

With the music and the songs 

Our future was set from the moment that we met 

We were old long friends 

The work that quit our play 

Carried us away then brought us home 

Brought us home again 

Love's a game, you never made a claim 

Or tried to play that game with me 

That set you apart with your own place in my heart 

Where you will always be 

As a woman among men 

It was hard to find a friend 

Then you were there and with you I was free 

We traveled far by scooter then by car 

From Paris down to Rome 

In Germany we clowned 

In Switzerland broke down, we were so young then 

We parted and we aged 

But our rainbow didn't fade 

We remained, we remained old friends 

Old friend, comrade of mine 

Once again you're on my mind 

There's always a place, there's always a time 

To think of days gone by 

We spent too long apart 

And there's so much in my heart 

I want to say before we say goodbye 

Now you are gone and like the music 

And the song you've come in to my mind 

It's a good we have done, ensures that we live on 

You will never die 

Your friends hold you dear 

We'll keep you with us here 

So never say, never say goodbye
