Looking For A Friend

(album: 30 - 2012)

I stopped by a place I used to know
But nobody knew my name
And I felt out of place and out of time
But I had one just the same
The new bartender did not seem to care
About a story of back then
It's getting hard to find 'em, have you seen 'em?
I'm looking for a friend

It's been a time round here, just getting by
Things are hard and nothin's new
And I've been waiting for that sun to break on a coudy afternon
Yeah, this winter's been much colder
Than the ones I knew back then
It's getting hard to find 'em, have you seen 'em?
I'm looking for a friend

And I go down the road and back again
It's hard remembering where I've been
And I ain't changed
It seems the world took off
And left me, that's the way it goes
It's a lonely road the dreamer follows
Like Peter Pan in Neverland, all alone

And I'm still singing for my supper, like I've always done
But now the business and the politics have taken most the fun
But I'll be out there chasing sundown
And I'll be home in God knows when
I'm looking out to find one, I'm hoping I might see one
I'm looking for a friend

And I go down the road and back again
It's hard remembering where I've been
And I ain't changed
It seems the world took off
And left me, that's the way it goes
It's a lonely road the dreamer follows
Like Peter Pan in Neverland, all alone

I stopped by a place I used to know
But nobody knew my name
