My old
friends,
come stand beside me
Join me once again upon the stage
I miss the way we used
to sing in harmony
Back before we all went different ways
Do you recall the secrets
that I told you?
Between the towns along
the country roads
The twists and turns unravel
all I've gone through
And I had you to help me share the love
Like a sweet songbird,
like a sweet songbird
Swap for melodies
You flew in with the wind and
you sang there in my tree
Like the best of friends, like
the best of friends
Like a truth that rhymes
Let's sing our way back to those
precious times
When the roads are lined with jacaranda
A pretty purple wel
come to the spring
Takes me back to drinkin'
wine on my veranda
And all those pretty song
s that we would sing
Do you believe the time
that's rolled behind us
And baby's turnin' into little men
Born how a simple song can find us
Lost in three -part memories of him
Like a sweet songbird,
like a sweet songbird
Swamp of melodies
You flew in with the wind and
you sang there in my dreams
Like the best of friends,
like the truth that rhymes
Let's sing our way back
to those precious times
I love to hear our voices blend
Did I ever tell you you
saved me back then?
Like a sweet songbird, swapping melodies
You flew in with the wind and
you sang there in my tree
Like the best of friends,
like the truth that rhymes
Let's sing our way back to
those precious times
Let's sing our way back
to those precious times
