The Mocking Ones

My old friend, you know you're good to see How I've missed the way you look at me You bring to mind so many memories Of how things were and how they couldn't be Because we never did see eye to eye Still we loved each other, God knows why Now as light fades in the western sky All our chances seem to pass us by Know I've always wished for you good luck And as I rummaged through the rust and dust To save myself I said it ended thus And thought of you and me, no more as us No, we never did see eye to eye Still we loved each other, God knows why Now as light fades in the western sky All our chances seem to pass us by I said before and now the long time's come To wait, forget, and still remember some To hold our heads above the laughing tongues Falling from faces of the mocking ones So my old friend, you know you're good to see You bring to mind such lovely memories Oh, how I've missed the way you look at me
