Old Friends Lyrics - Ben Rector

[Verse 1] 

I can still find Wiley's house 

Riding on my bike with eyes closed 

I can name every girl that he took out 

And from my memory, dial his house phone 

[Chorus] 

Can you take me back when we were just kids 

Who weren't scared of getting older? (yeah yeah) 

'Cause no one knows you like they know you 

And no one probably ever will 

You can grow up, make new ones 

But truth is there's nothing like old friends (oooh) 

'Cause you can't make old friends (oooh) (mmm yeah)

[Verse 2] 

I can still feel the windows down 

Listening to Jimmy Eat World riding 3-wide on Blake's bench seat (yeah) 

My God, it's been ten years now 

I would have his back tomorrow 

And he'd still fight anyone who tried to touch me 

[Chorus] 

Can you take me back when we were just kids 

Who weren't scared of getting older? (yeah yeah) (oooh) 

'Cause no one knows you like they know you 

And no one probably ever will 

You can grow up, make new ones 

But truth is there's nothing like old friends (oooh) 

'Cause you can't make old friends (oooh)

[Bridge] 

And I've got some good friends now 

But I've never seen their parents' back porch 

I wouldn't change how things turned out 

But there's no one in this time zone 

Who knows what inline skates that I wore 

[Chorus 2] 

Can you take me back when we were just kids 

Who weren't scared of getting older? (oooh) 

'Cause no one knows you like they know you 

And no one probably ever will 

You can grow up, make new ones 

But the truth is 

That we grow up, then wish we could go back then 

There's nothing like old friends (oooh) 

'Cause you can't make old friends (oooh)
