There beside me each and every night
Purring softly as I hold him tight
Lying so that I can't move
But I don't mind
Good friends are hard to find
[Chorus]
He's getting older I need to worry more
He's getting cranky, his legs are very sore
He needs more attention now
Cause time is unkind
But I don't mind
Good friends are hard to find
By the door he's waiting
In his eyes I see
The love he's stating
He follows me onto that favorite chair
It's filled with hair
I don't care
Walking through my legs is his favorite game
And when I call, "Smoke" answers to his name
And when he goes, I know I'll never be the same
Cause a piece of this heart will forever die
And both of these eyes will forever cry
But Smokerboy even this
Even this
I don't mind
Cause if God gave me the chance
To never have known you,
To never have loved you
The offer would be
Between you and me
Politely, but firmly, declined
Cause good friends and best friends
And any kind of love at all in this crazy world
In this crazy world
Is just too hard to find
Do not go gentle my friend
