lyrics

„old friend“

Hey man,
I´m your bro - you’re mine - you still know?
So let’s just say - we´re old friends
Man, it´s your birthday today
Let´s not stop contacting

But that’s may be the point
I mean we’re friends like a lot of people are
But I don’t know how to talk about us -
without the whole thing again and again

I were not who I am now
if we wouldn´t have met each other
In 1991 - oh man its been such a good time
wasn’t it?

We both tried to be tough guys
To be honest we’re drinking cola light
As much as we could
Watching NBA and listening to music

Pearl jam, chill peppers and soundgarden
Yeah that was us.
I´d already bought a used little guitar
Out of tune and you did the same
So we had our 1st band together
Called „play boring games“

I showed you some cords
And you proved how to play fast and loudly
We were writhing our own songs
And that was something quite new

Later we both splittet up
May be because we couldn’t find out
how to write a note
And that’s it if you wanna play
with really skilled people from music school

But hey our songs were good
enough to set the houses on fire
At least our own flat
3 month after having moved in.

I didn’t recognized you anymore
And you did the same

But man, what’s had happened so badly
that you didn’t tell me about
The most important thing.

I alone felt that my heart was teared out in those days
And I really changed to someone else
How should we get back the old friends we once were
Without forgetting about her.
Let´s be adults and just drink.
