Old Friends

I went to heaven so I could see my old friend He said "It's been a long time, how've you been?" So I told him about those days I spent in Hell For my mistakes and wrong turns and those times I fell He said "Life's about choices, it does no good not to feel" "And if you only live in heaven, you'll never know what's real" So I went up to that church and grabbed myself a knee Wanted faith to be waiting at the bottom for me But I know I cannot stay, and I know I cannot pray It was time, it was time, it was time Time to move along, time to move along I went to hell just so I could see my old friend He said "It's been a long time, where've you been?" So I told him about those days I spent in Heaven For my good deeds and right turns and those times I helped He said "Life's about choices it does no good not to feel," "But if you've only lived in hell you'll know, you'll know what's real" So I went down to that bar and grabbed myself a round Wanted truth to be waiting at the bottom to be found But I know I cannot stay, I know I walked away It was time, it was time, it was time Time to move along, time to move along I came back home just so I could see where I've been And that those mistakes and wrong turns have made me who I am Now I know life's about choices it does no good not to feel And if I only live in heaven, I'll never know what's real So I went up to that stage and grabbed myself a song Wanting all of my old friends to gather around and sing along Because I know I cannot stay, we all must go away When it's time, when it's time, when it's time Time to move along, time to move along Time to move along, time to move along
