Old Friend
Don't believe in luck, but I wish it to you
Once joined at the hip, but now separated into two
Hope your new journey is worth your while
Hope the path you've chosen brings you a smile
I'll miss the years of laughter we've shared
But it was your choice to leave
Know for you I still care
Moving forward is where you can find me
Don't believe in luck, but I wish it to you
Strangers to friends then back at strangers again, who knew
Don't know if we'll ever cross paths again
So for now its farewell my old friend
