  old friend, so you're in trouble again, you ask me today,
  to try and find a little time, and maybe buy a glass of wine,
  old friend, i'm coming through...
  
  old friend, yes i remember you, always a smile on your face,
  oh memory from years before, an old man and a little boy,
  old friend, i remember you...
  
  you used to take me fishing down by the wishing well,
  one day you threw a wish in, and we listened while it fell,
  and you made a wish...
  
  "when the years are heavy, and my heart is growing cold,
  well i wish when the evening comes that there'll always
  be...some old friend who'll miss me too..."
  
  well i do, so old friend i'm coming through...
  yes, for you i'll always find the time, we will have a bottle
  of wine, old friend, i'm here by your side, oh, to the very end,
  old friend...i miss you too...my dear old friend...
  old friend...old friend...
