Lyrics
[Chorus]
My friend, I won't ever say goodbye
We'll find one another down the line
Though people change, move on to a different place
My friend, I'll always recognize your face
[Verse 1]
Maybe things went bad, it was time to move on
Found yourself a home, tried to right the wrong
Still sometimes you feel like the days are too long
Just know that I am thinking of you
[Chorus]
My friend, I won't ever say goodbye
We'll find one another down the line
Though people change, move on to a different place
My friend, I'll always recognize your face
[Verse 2]
Heard you settled down, did the family thing
I always said you'd die before you put on a ring
I did the same thing, too, for the joy that it brings
And I would like to share it with you
[Chorus]
My friend, I won't ever say goodbye
We'll find one another down the line
Though people change, move on to a different place
My friend, I'll always recognize your face
[Bridge]
When the weight of the world gets heavy
You won't have to bear it alone
I know that burden and I'll be ready
To stop what I'm doing, I'll be there to help with the load
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Instrumental]
My friend, I won't ever say goodbye
We'll find one another down the line
Though people change, move on to a different place
My friend, I'll always recognize your face
My friend, I'll always recognize your face
My friend, always recognize your face
