"Amen Old Friend" lyrics - THE DOOBIE BROTHERS

When I needed you
I pushed you away
Oh, my troubled mind
Had lost its faith
But I was too far gone
And so alone
Yeah, I really needed saving

I was nothing but lonely
Feeling like a fool
I turned my back
On someone like you
Time has gone
Right or wrong
Don't know what I was chasing

So afraid of
What I can't see
Turned a blind eye
In your hour of need

Life's too short to waste this love again
Down this road that never ends
Don't look back, let's make amends
Amen, amen to old friends

All those times
Thought there'd be someone
A hero to me
And a savior to some
Who would have my back
And just like that
There you were, tried, true, and strong

Days and nights
I could never change
I'm gonna let your light in
Before it's too late

Life's too short to waste this love again
Down this road that never ends
Don't look back, let's make amends
Amen, amen

If I showed you who I thought I was
Highs and lows
And in-betweens
You would see the only one
I'd been running from
Was really me

Life's too short to waste this love again
Down this road that never ends
Don't look back, let's make amends
Amen, amen to old friends
Whoa, to old friends
Amen, amen, to old friends
