My old friend, Your grasp, a never-ending bend. Eyes wide, mind racing fast, Another night, forever cast. In wakeful misery, I lay, Counting sheep that won't stay away. A prisoner, in my own mind, Till morning's light, I'm confined. My old friend, With the devil, I have dined To you I lied I hate being by your side I wish to run away From this gloom and gray Never to cross your path I can deal with this aftermath Just to dream For you, I will hold a requiem Let me go I am done with this to and frow, Find someone else to hold I can't deal with this, I am getting old

Old Friend
My old friend, Your grasp, a never-ending bend. Eyes wide, mind racing fast, Another night, forever cast. In wakeful misery, I lay, Counting sheep that won't stay away. A prisoner, in my own mind, Till morning's light, I'm confined. My old friend, With the devil, I have dined To you I lied I hate being by your side I wish to run away From this gloom and gray Never to cross your path I can deal with this aftermath Just to dream For you, I will hold a requiem Let me go I am done with this to and frow, Find someone else to hold I can't deal with this, I am getting old
