  • Hello
    It's good to see you coming back again
    It's been a long time
    Since I sat with you, my friend

    I'll lend an ear
    It's not that so severe
    Time has killed the pain
    And dried up every tear

    And now
    I'm thinking bout what went, down
    All the heartache
    I laughed away
    Just like a clown

    And now
    Sit around talking
    Drink some wine
    I'm really glad you stopped in
    Spend some time
    You sit around talking
    Thinking bout the past
    It's funny how it lingers
    But nothings meant to last

    And my Ma
    She'd like to say hello
    But shes a little scared
    That I can't let it go
    So let on, ease back, brother
    And let it slip away
    I'm tired of hanging onto
    The pains of yesterday

    Once again
    The money is so thick
    It makes your heart go numb
    It makes your mind get sick

    So come on by
    Stay and talk about it
    Drink some wine
    I'm really glad you stopped in, brother of mine
    We'll sit around talking
    Drink some wine
    And maybe by the morning everything is fine
    Everything is fine
    Ease back, brother
    Let this clear your mind

    Come on by
    And drink yourself a good time
    Have some wine
    And think about each other
    Sister and I are fine
    Yes, I've been alright now
    Take it lightly
    Step on out the front door
    I'll see you in some time Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
