Two Old Friends - Magna Carta

Two old friends of mine

I saw them only yesterday

They where there but I

Got the feeling they had gone away

Gone away from each other

But I was alone killing time

A stranger in the silence of their company

Two old friends of mine

Is this all life has left of you?

Who took the laughter, the times?

We said what we were gonna do

When we were grown and ready

To take on the world with a song

And now the tune is one

You can’t remember

Who lost the reason for being together?

Who says the money won’t go round?

Once it was love

And we’ll live on a shoestring

But they don’t give no mortgage

On a castle in the air

Two old friends of mine

A dripping tap

And a broken old chair

And if I read between the lines

Someone’s lonely, someone doesn’t care

If it’s all gone by tomorrow

For tomorrow’s been and gone

Like a bird that has no home
