Dedicated to Lori & Rodney Copeland, childhood friends and my childhood Alvin peeps
If I have grown old
What of old friends
Who’ve grown apart
And then back again
Years spent around our tables
Years of children and laughter
Tears were shed together
Hands were held
Fears were conquered
Darkness vanquished, too
If I have grown old
What of old friends
Years spent around our tables
Years of children and laughter
Each friend held our hearts
As each was held in our own
We felt that we were never alone
If I have grown old
And I have grown old
What of old friends
Well, so have you
But we felt that we were never alone
With old friends 'round
You are never alone
Old friends, you are my home
