"Old Friend" lyrics - TODD SNIDER

For as long as I have known you
You've been coming to my rescue
And I'm always here to catch you
Every time you fall
After all that we have been through
I guess what it all comes down to
Is knowing I can call you
When my back's against the wall

[Chorus:]
Old friend, old friend
You keep on believing
Some day we'll come out even
Even if we lose again
Old friend, old friend
God knows where we're going
I guess half the fun's not knowing
Where we'll wind up in the end

We end up in trouble
Every time we get together
People say we should know better
But I hope we never do
We can't live forever
It's here and now or never
You know one way or another
We will always make it through

[Chorus:]
Old friend, old friend
You keep on believing
Some day we'll come out even
Even if we lose again
Old friend, old friend
God knows where we're going
I guess half the fun's not knowing
Where we'll wind up in the end

[Outro:]
Old friend
God knows where we're going
I guess half the fun's not knowing
Where we'll wind up in the end
Old friend
