Friend

Van Zant

when I look at you these days
I think of all weve been through
you and I are one in the same
and I thank god for you

(Chorus)
I remember the youth and the days gone by
and it hurts me to see the age in your eyes
oh I wish I could turn back the hands of time
and do it all over again
my friend
oh my friend

you were always here for me
and I'll be there for you
you taught me how to live my life
your the strength that pulls me through

(Chorus)
I remember the youth and the days gone by
and it hurts me to see the age in your eyes
oh I wish I could turn back the hands of time
and do it all over again
my friend

so many times you were tough on me
I just didnt understand
lookin' back I realize
that you made me a better man

oh my friend

(guitar solo)

(chorus)
I remember the youth and the days gone by
and it hurts me to see the age in your eyes
oh I wish I could turn back the hands of time
and do it all over again
and do it all over again
my friend

oh youll always be my friend
now I understand
oh my friend
made me a better man
oh my friend
oh you will always be my friend
made me a better man
now I understand
you will always be...be my friend
