Old Friend Video (MV)

Crimplene curtains
Melamine skirtings
Terracotta tiles above the sink
Trying to find a purpose
Book in at the surgeon
Waiting for a visit from the kids

Think back to the old days
Those golden days
When you were young
But now you're in your old age
Pension fund your monthly wage
And no one's bothered to ask what you think

Cause you're Overlooked
Misunderstood
Nothing prepared you for the loneliness
Nothing ever could
When your best years are behind you
And you're fading into grey
There's no medication for old age

I saw you smoking by the spar
In the shadow of your car
I couldn't help but think about your health
Here in your greatest time of need
You're parked alone beside the street
Like sentimental items on a shelf

Your life was full of beauty
Full of glory
And you kept all the photo frames
But they don't know your story
And they won't make a movie
Cause that's just no the kind of thing that sells

Cause you're Overlooked
Misunderstood
Nothing prepared you for the loneliness
Nothing ever could
When your best years are behind you
And you're fading into grey
There's no medication for old age

Old friend, old friend
I'll be by your side
Old friend, old friend
Old friend, old friend
I'll be by your side
Old friend, old friend
Old friend, old friend
I'll be by your side
Old friend, old friend
Old friend, old friend
I'll be by your side
Old friend, old friend
