Steve Pineo - Good Bye Old Friend Lyrics

Good bye old friend, with your cigarettes and shaky hand
The reluctant leader of the band, it was what you had to do
Good bye old friend, no one could touch you on a Friday night
You couldn't sing a note that wasn't right
We were kinda scared of you

People come and go, but there aren't many who can move me so
A child star with an ancient soul, a fallen angel on the mend

Good bye old friend, with your candles and your comic books
With your stubborn stares and sideways looks
With your Rosey and your Blue
Good bye old friend with your battle scars and checkered past
I sure hope you've found your home at last
But man we sure are missing you

And when you let it flow, there was nowhere else you had to go
Thought I'd lost my faith in rock and roll, until you brought it back again,
Goodbye old friend

And when you gained control, it was only 'cause you made it so
But time must take its mortal toll and every story has to end
Goodbye old friend
