Tony was a friend of mine
We were together all the time
He had my back
Once he really saved my life
Sometimes, I wanna call him
Say "Hey, let's stay up, 'til morning"
And when I close my eyes
When I close my eyes
I see you
You
When I close my eyes
When I close my eyes
You come through
You
Time just deepens
Sweetens, and mends
Old friends
We all melt back into the picture
Raindrops back into the water
Old friends
And there are no ends to old friends
Amen
