Farewell old friend
|
Leave me now be gone
|
My soul is weak
|
My mind is never strong
|
Watch my hands at night
|
And see the way they're shaking
|
See the endless road
|
See the way it's taking
|
And it's still the same old night
|
And it still just don't seem right
|
And this darkness blinds my eyes
|
Writing down my life
|
On endless scraps of paper
|
Years of hanging round
|
A life of wasted labour
|
And it's still the same old night
|
And somehow it don't feel right
|
And this darkness blinds my eyes
|
Goodnight old friend
|
I'll see you once again
|
The dawn will come
|
And haunt me once again
|
Watch my life unfold
|
And see the shape it's taking
|
Watch my fingers write
|
And see the way they're shaking
|
And it's still the same old night
|
And somehow it don't feel right
|
And this darkness blinds my eyes
|
Goodnight old friend
|
I'll see you once again
|
The dawn will come
|
And haunt us once again
|
And it's still the same old night
|
And it's still the same old night
|
And it's still the same old night
|
Ah, it's still the same old night
|

Goodnight Old Friend
