Story behind the song
An imagined conversation with an old friend...
Lyrics
Hey old friend, [it’s] been a long time since we’ve hung together.
How’ve you been? I hope you’re no worse for the weather.
How’s the family everyone well? anything new?
Are you happy? I hope that you’ve shaken those blues.
Me? I’m doing fine; hardly think about us most of the time.
Still, I’m grateful for the time we shared in days gone by.
My dear friend, I had hoped that we’d stay close forever.
I understand, life tends to take us wherever,
Still, I miss you [and] all the fun and laughs we had.
Any issues, long past, were not really that bad.
Hope you’re doing fine; maybe think about us some of the time
And are grateful for the time we shared in days gone by.
Let’s raise a glass in a toast to the times we’ve had when our lives ran together.
And raise one more in a toast to the days ahead in the lives we’ve made
And the hope that someday maybe we’ll meet up again.
Bye old friend. It was great catching up for a while.
Time has been kind to you, and you still have that smile.
Nice to see you. Say hi to all and send my love.
And I wish you the best for the years yet to come.
We’ll be doing fine; likely think about us some of the time
And be grateful for the time we shared in days gone by.
Let’s raise a glass in a toast to the times we’ve had when our lives ran together.
And raise one more in a toast to the days ahead in the lives we’ve made
And the hope that someday maybe we’ll meet up again.
