[Verse 1]
I can recall those warm summer days
No decisions. Child's play
Did they slip away?
Gone forever. Gone forever
Lost to yesterday
[Chorus]
From the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
True until the end
Of time
[Verse 2]
As I walk down streets
Full of amber leaves
I see nothing's really
Changed at all
We're just older now
Still together, still together
After all these years
[Chorus]
From the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
True until the end
Of time (My old friend)
[Chorus]
From the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
True until the end
Of time
[Instrumental, Flugelhorn Solo]
(Still together, after all these years)
[Chorus]
From the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
True until the end
Of time (My old friend)
[Chorus]
From the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
True until the end
Of time (My old friend)
[Chorus]
From the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
True until the end
Of time (My old friend)
[Chorus]
From the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
True until the end
Of time
