To All My Friends Lyrics

Here's a song to all my friend's I know they'd like
I remember every drunken night at the old dive
Driving the old wreck tryin' to make it home somehow
One more pitstop at our favorite watering hole
The ghost of Christmas past swallowed all our pride
We'd open up our story books and water down the eyes
Our demons raised their glasses singing I proposed a toast
To all my friends
Who's buying the next round ?

Cup half empty, cup half full. Perspectives and beers
They weren't failures just the regulars of my favorite year
They come and go paying their toll from mobile homes
Decaying old unsound minds the ghost of Christmas future
Dancing to the click of time the beating of defeat
Shaking in his hands, a lifetime of retreat
And his regrets were ours, a time to say goodbye
I've been waiting so long for you to call
My old friend

To all my friends, to all my friends, to all my friends
