My friend Oh, my brother I hope this finds you well I'm doing good I met a girl You'd get along like a house on fire I think about when times were hard We'd sit and not say a word Share a drink or three, just keeping company And know the other one was there So thank you for all that you did The times you saved me from myself Thank you for lifting me up When I thought the world had won You're miles away from where you lay down to sleep I can't believe it's been so many years And while I wish that you were here I hope you're feeling better Knowing that all of us are missing you from miles away If only you were here to see The man I've grown to be Traded the bottle for a home And tiny terrors of my own I wish that you could meet them A few kids and a wife I found that perfect life We always talked about, they'll always know your name I wanna thank you for all that you did For the times you saved me from myself So thank you for all that you said When I thought my world was done You're miles away from where you lay down to sleep I can't believe it's been so many years And while I wish that you were here I hope you're feeling better Knowing that all of us are missing you from miles away You're miles away from where you lay down to sleep I can't believe it's been so many years And while I wish that you were here, I hope you're feeling better Knowing that all of us are missing you from miles away
