dear old friend

hey there dear old friend of mine
i was starting to miss you
you went a away
thought that you were done with me
things got so messed up
the first time around
during my first performance
and i blamed you
said it was all your fault
turned my back on you
but here you stand
stronger than ever
giving me a second chance
but i don't know if i am ready yet
old friend we've done this dance once before
and it turned up on the opposite side of good
got rid of my old partner
i am starting think that i am better as a solo artist
i am stronger than before
i am smarter than before
but tougher than before
and i may be a little harder than before
almost picked up some bad recruits along the way
but you stayed by my side whispering in my ear
that i could do better
well dear old friend
the floor is empty and
i've put back on my dancing shoes
let's see if we can make magic again
