I've got an old friend, here every day
I've got an old friend who ruined the game
I've got some new friends, who are bound to stay
Cause they are not the same
I heard your song on the radio and your hair sounded like bliss
And the girls would run and scream and play
And they'd say they didn't they did
So don't change, don't ever change
I've known you oh so long
And they sing along
They sing the same song everyday
I'm gonna give it some time
So I don't make no mistakes
You take the Concorde out of town
And I'll just wait for the train
Dear Me did you get up early
Did you wake before the birds
My friend's been on a journey
And he's not come of words
Did you care about the money
Did you care about your smile
I've been looking for my spirit
Been looking for a while
So don't change, don't ever change
I've known you oh so long
And they sing along
They sing the same song everyday
I'm gonna give it some time
So I don't make no mistakes
You take the Concorde out of town
I'll just wait for the train
So don't change, don't ever change
I've known you oh so long
And they sing along
They sing the same song everyday
I'm gonna give it some time
So I don't make no mistakes
You take the Concorde out of town
And I'll just wait for the train
