The clouds were rolling in and I was driving when the grapevine broke the news Over trail creek it was snowing I was hoping that the rumor wasn't true Then silence filled the air like there would never be another sound again Tears came to my eyes and I felt like I had lost my dearest friend Tom was a friend of mine We'd known each other most of our lives We used to hang out all the time Tom was a friend of mine It's impossible to put to words the way he always seemed to understand How you felt like he was sitting there just shooting straight talkin' man to man And I'm thankful that I got to see him at his very best from time to time And I pray that we may meet again someday somewhere further down the line Tom was a friend of mine We'd known each other most of our lives We used to hang out all the time Tom was a friend of mine Say hi to Spike and Lefty when you reach the great beyond And I hope you're somewhere you feel free where you belong Tom was a friend of mine We'd known each other most of our lives We used to hang out all the time Tom was a friend of mine We'd known each other most of our lives He wrote a lot of songs with me in mind Tom was a friend of mine Aus Songtexte Mania
