What will I do when you're gone?
Who's gonna tell me the truth?
Who's gonna finish the stories I start
The way you always do?

When somebody knocks at the door
Someone new walks in
I will smile and shake their hands
But you can't make old friends

You can't make old friends
Can't make old friends
It was you and me, since way back when
But you can't make old friends

How will I sing when you're gone?
Cause it won't sound the same
Who'll join in on those harmony parts
When I call your name?

You can't make old friends
Can't make old friends
It was you and me, since way back when
But you can't make old friends

When Saint Peter opens the gate
And you come walking in
I'll be there just waiting for you
Cause you can't make old friends

Cause you can't make old friends

When I am out on the stage all alone
And I hear the music begin
We all know the show must go on
But you can't make old friends

No, no...

You can't make old friends
Can't make old friends
And you and me, will be young again
You can't make old friends
