about

i wrote this in the car coming back from dropping an old friend off at the airport in rome. i heard the first four notes on the harp, and had the whole thing by the time we got home to perugia. it's about long ago and far away, surprise visits, and taking the long way home.

lyrics

Had a friend from long ago and far away
Come to find me one dark and rainy day
All the news that we shared weren't the best
We talked of friends lost and gone and laid to rest
But at the end of the day there were smiles
Even though we felt the weight of some of them miles
Yeah that's a friend from long ago go and far away
Come to find me one gray and rainy day

Now I didn't know I was down but he helped me stand
I never asked but all the same he lent a hand
He picked me up, turned me 'round and showed me home
Just when I was so down and all alone Yeah that's a friend from long ago and far away
Come to find me one gray and cloudy day

And so it goes and so it flows like a river winding
You never know what it shows or who will find you
But at the end of the day there'll be smiles
With a friend for to bear some of them miles
Yeah that's a friend from long ago and far away
Come to meet you
Find and greet you
Some day
Yeah that's a friend from long ago and far away
Come to meet you
Find and greet you
Someday
Yeah that's a friend from long ago and far away
Come to meet you
Find and greet you
Someday...
