My friend, oh, my brother
I hope this finds you well
I'm doing good
I met a girl
You'd get along like a house on fire
I think about when times were hard

We'd sit and not say a word

Share a drink or three, just keeping company

And know the other one was there, yeah



So thank you for all that you did

The times you saved me from myself

Thank you for lifting me up

When I thought the world had won



And you're miles away

From where you lay down to sleep

I can't believe it's been so many years

And while I wish that you were here

I hope you're feelin' better

Knowing that all of us are missing you from miles away



If only you were here to see

The man I've grown to be

Traded the bottle for a home

And tiny terrors of my own

I wish that you could meet them

A few kids and a wife

I found that perfect life

We always talked about

They'll always know your name



I wanna thank you for all that you did

For the times you saved me from myself

So thank you for all that you said

When I thought my world was done



And you're miles away

From where you lay down to sleep

I can't believe it's been so many years

And while I wish that you were here

I hope you're feelin' better

Knowing that all of us are missing you from miles away





And you're miles away

From where you lay down to sleep

I can't believe it's been so many years

And while I wish that you were here

I hope you're feelin' better

Knowing that all of us are missing you from miles away
