Hello Old Friend

By eric clapton

As i am strolling down the garden path,
I saw a flower glowing in the dark.
It looked so pretty and it was unique;
I had to bend down just to have a peek.

Hello old friend,
It's really good to see you once again.
Hello old friend,
It's really good to see you once again.

I saw you walking underneath the stars;
I couldn't stop 'cause i was in a car.
I'm sure the distance wouldn't be too far
If i got out and walked to where you are.

Chorus

An old man passed me on the street today;
I thought i knew him but i couldn't say.
I stopped to think if i could place his frame.
When he tipped his hat i knew his name.

Chorus
