I stopped by a place I used to know
But nobody knew my name
And I felt out of place and out of time
But I had one just the same
The new bartender did not seem to care
About a story of back then
It's gettin' hard to find 'em, have you seen 'em?
I'm lookin' for a friend
It's been a time round here, just gettin' by
Things are hard and nothin's new
And I've been waitin' for that sun to break on a coudy afternon
Yeah, this winter's been much colder
Than the ones I knew back then
It's gettin' hard to find 'em, have you seen 'em?
I'm lookin' for a friend
And I go down the road and back again
It's hard rememberin' where I've been
And I ain't changed
It seems the world took off
And left me, that's the way it goes
It's a lonely road the dreamer follows
Like Peter Pan in Neverland, all alone
And I'm still singin' for my supper, like I've always done
But now the business and the politics have taken most the fun
But I'll be out there chasin' sundown
And I'll be home in God knows when
I'm lookin' out to find one, I'm hopin' I might see one
I'm lookin' for a friend
And I go down the road and back again
It's hard rememberin' where I've been
And I ain't changed
It seems the world took off
And left me, that's the way it goes
It's a lonely road the dreamer follows
Like Peter Pan in Neverland, all alone
I stopped by a place I used to know
But nobody knew my name
