Friend of Old

There you go
On the way to meet your fortune and your dreams
Down a road
That is often not the highway that it seems
Well, I've been down that road and back again
I had the grandest dreams on the way

But if you find somehow
When the hours have run
That your hour to shine has come and gone
No, no
Then you'll know what friends are for
And you know I always keep an open door
This friend of old will one day be your friend
Once more

You are strong
With a youthful power that will not always be
So move along
Reach as high above the stars as you can see
But if those stars don't shine on your castles there
And if your grandest dreams start to fade

And if you find somehow
When the hours have run
That your hour to shine has come and gone
Then you'll know what friends are for
And you know I always keep an open door
This friend of old will one day be your friend
Once more

Ooh-ooh, hey, hey
Hey, now, now
Hey-hey, yeah

Well, I been down that road and back again
I had the grandest dreams on the way

But if you find somehow
When the hours have run
That your hour to shine has come and gone
Ooh, then you'll know what friends are for
And you know I always keep an open door
This friend of old will one day be your friend
Once more
Hey, yeah, once more
Ooh, once more, oh-oh...
