Old Friend

I visited with Old Friend today

Just to see the look on his face…

I wonder what he thinks of LA…

Do the people seem to be happier here?

Dropped in on an old friend today

Just to shoot the shit and have a steak,

Distance is a cold killer

But you’re still the king to my hill…

Is it safe to drink the dream in LA?

And whatever else they’re pumping it with?

Is it safe to drink the dream in LA?

Or is everyone living off promises?

Your porch was an open arm

When I didn't know what I needed,

Your plate was piled high enough

So again, I appreciate it…

You’re with me forever,

like a line on my cheek…

We lost an old friend today

I forget how to do the coffee,

I hate it when i make it weak

Is it safe to drink the dream in LA?…

Or anywhere people make promises?

Is it safe to drink the dream in LA?…

Or anywhere people make promises?
