Hello old friend
I haven't been home in a while
I'm all screwed up
But having you here makes me smile
I saw an old photo from when we were kings
We were dressed up like Teddy boys, dancing on strings
Playing at grown-ups, learning to sing
And I reached out to pick up the past
But it rushed through my fingers so fast
But in my thoughts you come back again
Bathed in light forever, my friend
I walk right up to hold you but then fall away, away, away
‘Cause what could I say to the face in the dark
Would I speak of the nightmare that will soon come to pass
Or leave him forever to dance in the past
A memory to keep in a box
And pray that it never gets lost
But in my thoughts you come back again
Bathed in light forever, my friend
I walk right up to hold you but then fall away, away, away
