Hello Old Friend -- Eric Clapton

As I am strolling down the garden path, I saw a flower glowing in the dark.
It looked so pretty and it was unique; I had to bend down just to have a peek.
Hello old friend, Its really good to see you once again. Hello old friend,
Its really good to see you once again.

I saw you walking underneath the stars; I couldnt stop cause I was in a car.
Im sure the distance wouldn't be too far If I got out and walked to where you are.

An old man passed me on the street today; I thought I knew him but I couldnt say.
I stopped to think if I could place his frame. When he tipped his hat I knew his name.
