[Verse]
            
Hello there, m

y old friend
           
  Not so long 

            
ago, it was ti

ll the end
             
  We played ou

              
tside, in the 


pourin' rain
           
  On our way u

              
p the road, we

  
 started over 

again

[Chorus]
           
  Livin' the d

             
ream, of you o

   
n top
           
  My mind is a

             
chin', and lor

           
d it won't sto

p
           
 That's how it

            
's happened, l

             
ivin' life by 

    
the drop

[Verse]
             
Up and down th

              
at road, in ou

  
r worn out sho

es
           
 Talkin' 'bout

              
 good things, 

    
and singin' th

e blues
             
 You went your

          
 way, and I st

ayed behind
           
 We both knew,

              
 it was just a

 
 matter of tim

e

[Chorus]
           
 Livin' the dr

             
eam, of you on

 
 top
           
 My mind is ac

             
hin', and lord

          
 it won't stop
           
 That's how it

            
 happens, livi

             
n' life by the

 
 drop

[Verse]
             
 No waste of t

              
ime, we're all


owed today
           
 Churnin' up t

              
he past, there

      
's no easier w

ay
             
 Time's been b

              
etween us, a m


eans to an end
           
 God, it's goo

              
d to be here, 

           
walkin' togeth

er my friend
