Amen old friend


When I needed you
I pushed you away
Oh, my troubled mind
Had lost its faith
But I was too far gone
And so alone
Yeah, I really needed saving

I was nothing but lonely
Feeling like a fool
I turned my back
On someone like you
Time has gone
Right or wrong
Don't know what I was chasing

So afraid of
What I can't see
Turned a blind eye
In your hour of need

Life's too short to waste this love again
Down this road that never ends
Don't look back, let's make amends
Amen, amen to old friends
All those times
Thought there'd be someone
A hero to me
And a savior to some
Who would have my back
And just like that
There you were, tried, true, and strong

Days and nights
I could never change
I'm gonna let your light in
Before it's too late

Life's too short to waste this love again
Down this road that never ends
Don't look back, let's make amends
Amen, amen

If I showed you who I thought I was
Highs and lows
And in-betweens
You would see the only one
I'd been running from
Was really me

Life's too short to waste this love again
Down this road that never ends
Don't look back, let's make amends
Amen, amen to old friends
Whoa, to old friends
Amen, amen, to old friends

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics AMEN OLD FRIEND of THE DOOBIE BROTHERS is also present in the album Liberté (2021)

Biografia

The Doobie Brothers are an American rock band formed in San Jose, California, in 1969. Their sound, initially defined as rock with blues and country influences, later embraced elements of soft rock and pop in the 1970s. The name of the group derives from a slang term for marijuana. The original lineup included Tom Johnston (guitar, vocals), John Hartman (drums) and other musicians who joined over the years. Among the most notable members are also Patrick Simmons (guitar, vocals), Michael McDonald (keyboards, vocals) and Keith Knudsen (drums). The Doobie Brothers achieved international success with albums like "Toulouse Street" (1972), "What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits" (1973) and "Takin' It to the Streets" (1976). Their most famous songs include "Listen to the Music", "Black Water", "China Grove", "Long Train Runnin'", and "What a Fool Believes". The band has won four Grammy Awards and has sold over 48 million records worldwide. After several lineup changes, the Doobie Brothers reunited in 2019 with a lineup that includes Johnston, Simmons and Hartman.
