Lyrics
We shared a bench at the schoolyard wall We shared the secrets, we shared it all Then jobs and cities pulled us apart No quarrel, no fight, just a quiet part Old friend, we drifted soft No harm done, no harm done Old friend, I think of you Still the same sun, still the same sun I saw your name on a card last spring I held the phone and I could not ring Too much time, I did not know What to say, so I let it go Old friend, we drifted soft No harm done, no harm done Old friend, I think of you Still the same sun, still the same sun If you hear this song somewhere Know I kept your seat right there Know I kept your seat right there Maybe one day I will call Maybe laugh about it all Door is open, door is wide Come on in, sit by my side Old friend, we drifted soft No harm done, no harm done Old friend, I think of you Still the same sun, still the same sun Still the same sun Still the same sun
