lyrics

The Golden Fleece

You spoke of tunes and the words
how they meant so much to you
Made your life worth living
like you could always make it through
And you always had a smile
though there was sadness in your heart
You smiled those that loved you
from whose side you’d never part
And the Golden Fleece is open
Open just for you
To walk right on in
Smile and take a pew
And Mac will buy the first round
and we’ll wait to hear those stories
of the crazy things that happen
happened to you
since we last spoke
since we last joked
since we last laughed
oh my friend oh my friend
And Joel will buy the next round and
We’ll share our stories
Of the crazy things that happen
You know they always do
Oh my friend oh my friend
You told us of those waters
And the wave took you out
But your faith it saved you
And we were so glad it did
We were so glad it did
You told of the girl that loves you
You said she came on angel’s wings
though you could not hold a note
She made your heart sing
And the child you had together
Oh you knew that you were blessed
But you weren’t so sure if you could be a father
But you were all of that and more
And the child you adored
And the Golden Fleece is open
Open just for you
To walk right on in
Smile and take a pew
And I will buy the next round
And tell you of my stories
All the crazy things that happen
Happened to me
since we last spoke
since we last joked
since we last laughed
oh my friend oh my friend
They say there’s and island
We’re good friends never pass
Oh take me to that island
Let me see your face again
Let me hear your voice again
oh my friend oh my friend
And we’ll walk out that door
And look over Wanstead Flats
Where we used to roam
Where we played football
With just one goal
To spend some time together
Like good friends always should
Like we dreamt we always would
oh my friend oh my friend
And the Golden Fleece is open
Open just for you
To walk right on in
Smile and take a pew
And well tell our stories the one we always tell
Over and over
Before the closing bell
oh my friend oh my friend
