To An Old Friend letra

When the breeze all stops its breezing
And the river bed runs dry
And the only water falling's
The tear drops in your eye
And you've got no place to run to
And no place else to hide
Does it come as any comfort
It won't come as much surprise

Well I see many people
Hanging round your garden gate
You ask them what time it is
And they'll reply to late
And you'll realise how you became
Just what you used to hate
And you'll turn your back on me
And you resign yourself to fate

And the air starts getting colder
And the Sun will cease to shine
And you wish you hadn't tried so hard
To break this heart of mine
You'll take none of it for granted
Now you've run out of time
Til you lay down your weary head
And leave this world behind

When I've sung to you my story
And I've sung to you my song
And the money that you saved
For your rainy days is gone
I'll try to reconcile
And do my best to carry on
Though it strikes me pretty strange still
How two rights can make a wrong
