Old Friend

Hello my old friend Do you know what I've been through Well I've lost my way again The people that I look up to They have fallen one by one Trying their best to find You So here I am old friend I wanna believe You hear me But I'm close to giving in The struggle has left me weary But I'd give all I have to give Only to feel You near me, again This is my white flag waving in the wind A cry for mercy, in a war that I can't win Please don't turn from me After all that we have been through my old friend This is my white flag, raised up high again Well there's no one else to blame For everything I got into 'Cause I went forth in Your name To places I wasn't meant to But my life wouldn't be the same Carrying on without You, my friend This is my white flag waving in the wind A cry for mercy, in a war that I can't win Please don't turn from me After all that we have been through my old friend This is my white flag, raised up high again So I cry mercy, over and over again 'Cause everything's crumbling in And I'm trying to get out of the rubble now But I don't know where to begin Singing over and over again Can You hear me my old friend This is my white flag waving in the wind A cry for mercy, in a war that I can't win Please don't turn from me After all that we have been through my old friend This is my white flag, raised up high again
