Lyrics
My Old Friend
(Music and lyrics by Zoe Konez)
Last time we spoke, I was hurt
When the dark clouds come over, I feel a struggle
You, and me - we hit a wall just because
Just like everyone does
And I don’t care for details anymore
I just want to remember how it was before
I know we didn’t want a messy ending
But sometimes you just can’t help it
I know we look back at this differently
But I choose to think of you happily
My old friend
My old friend
In distance we stood, apart
Was it fear or nonchalance? stubbornness or disregard?
I sit, tense in these words
For many years holding back, many things to unpack
But I don’t care for details anymore
I just want to remember how it was before
I know we didn’t want a messy ending
But sometimes you just can’t help it
I know we look back at this differently
But I choose to think of you happily
My old friend
My old friend
We never did get our movie ending
Maybe everyone has that one big regret
Sometimes I bump into you on the internet
And I fondly remember, I can’t forget
My old friend
My old friend
I know we didn’t want a messy ending
But sometimes you just can’t help it
I know we look back at this differently
But I choose to think of you happily
My old friend
My old friend
