Elizabeth Rea Mathis - Old time friend Lyrics

It's been a long time seeing your face my friend
And I'm getting that old time feeling again
It takes me back to a simpler time
When we both were young and you were mine
Yeah it's been quite a while since we were in love
And when our hearts together, fit like a glove
Now standing here, it's like no time has passed
And it makes me wonder, can this moment last?

My old time friend and lover
I haven't found another
That's held my heart like you can
My old time friend and lover
Let's trust in each other
Can we try our love again?
Yeah old time friend and lover
This time can we try to hold on
To those dreams we thought were gone
Yeah old time friend and lover
Can we start this love all over?

I can see the fire of surprise in your eyes
And the meaning of that is hard to disguise
I know we both thought we were right that day
But it was just our youth getting in the way
Both wanting to see if there was more to do
In this great big world that can surely tempt you
Now that we've lived life apart for a while
Do you think we can walk another mile?

My old time friend and lover
I haven't found another
That's held my heart like you can
My old time friend and lover
Let's trust in each other
Can we try our love again?
Yeah old time friend and lover
This time can we try to hold on
To those dreams we thought were gone
Yeah old time friend and lover
We can start this love all over

Well now five years have passed since that day we met
And between us there hasn't been a single regret
We didn't know where the new path would lead
White house with a picket fence
Three kids, two dogs now makes sense
Looking back it's obvious to see
Love was real and that day, just a memory

My old time friend and lover
I haven't found another
That's held my heart like you can
My old time friend and lover
So we trusted in each other
And we tried our love again
Yeah old time friend and lover
This time we both held on
To those dreams we thought were gone
Yeah old time friend and lover
There will never be another

My old time friend and lover
Ooooo, ooooo

My old time friend and lover
I haven't found another
That's held my heart like you can
My old time friend and lover
So we trusted in each other
And we tried our love again
Yeah old time friend and lover
This time we both held on
To those dreams we thought were gone
Yeah old time friend and lover
There will never be another

My old time friend and lover
Oooo
