Hello Old Friends

©1980 Words and Music by Donald T. McMahon

Hello old friends, I'm so glad you've arrived.
I been waiting so long, won't you please come inside of me.
And visit a while. You know I can't stay.
There's one more tomorrow I'm longing to play.
And I don't want to lose you.
I don't want to lose you.
I don't want to lose you.
No I don't want to lose you again.

There's a storm comin' up, but it's getting me down.
Thunder is a rollin' it's a shakin' the ground.
But it's makin' me feel so very small.
If we're really together, we belong to us all.
And I won't ever lose you.
I won't ever lose you.
I won't ever lose you.
No I won't ever lose you again.

Now look at a candle, it burns as a flame.
Though we may seem different, we are really the same.
When I look in your eyes. It's just like a candle.
The love that is shinin' is all I can handle.
And I don't want to lose you.
I don't want to lose you.
I don't want to lose you.
No I don't want to lose you again.

If we all go our ways, so far apart.
You know I won't lose you 'cause you're here in my heart.
Now we're together it's alright if we go.
This feelin' inside can do nothing but grow.
And I won't ever lose you.
I won't ever lose you.
I won't ever lose you.
No I won't ever lose you again.
