Hello there, my old friend
Not so long ago it was ‘til the end
We played out in the pouring rain
On our way up the road we started over again

You’re livin’ our dream, wo you on top
My mind is achin’, Lord it won’t stop
That’s how it happens livin’ life by the drop

Up and down that road in our worn out shoes
Talkin’ bout good thangs, singin’ the blues
You went your way, I stayed behind
We both knew it was justa matter of time

You’re livin’ our dream, wo you on top
My mind is achin’, Lord it won’t stop
That’s how it happens livin’ life by the drop

No wasted time, we’re alive today
Churnin’ up the past, there’s no easier way
Times been between us, a means to an end
God it’s good to be here walkin’ together my friend

We’re livin’ our dreams
My mind’s stopped achin’
That’s how it happens livin’ life by the drop
That’s how it happens livin’ life by the drop
That’s how it happens livin’ life by the drop
