Dear Friend |
Dear friend, its been a long, long while |
Ive been meaning to write you |
But it was never my style |
But what is these days now Im a family man. |
Do you blow sincere kisses to mistresses |
Secrets in afternoons? |
Do you wear your disguises, feign the surprises, |
At the questions she asks when she dares to accuse? |
Does your past lie under a dustsheet, |
In the corner of a musty garage? |
Thats where I keep mine, now Im a family man. |
Are your horses still running when |
The bookies shop close? |
Is the band still together, did you ever |
Get on the road? |
We chased the same women, we drank |
The same beer. |
We came as a pair when we ran around here |
How are you these days, now youre a family man? |
Buy a drink for the boy in my place |
At the end of the bar |
Give my regards to nina, slam a tequila, |
Ill write you at christmas or Ill send you a card, |
And if you pass by youre welcome to drop in And see me cos its unlikely |
Ill be round your way, cos Im happy to be, |
Where I am, living life as a family man |
Do you still have your leathers, |
Or did you give them away? |
Do you still dream of joni and sidewalk cafes? |
Is your norton still running, is the old man still alive? |
Do you still get to dalkeith, is your rent still as high? |
But I suppose youve a mortgage, now youre a family man. |
Dear friend, its been a long, long while |
Ive been meaning to write you, |
But it was never my style. |
But what is these days, now Im a family man. |
