Where have you been?
And what are you looking for?
Tell me, old friend:
When you turn out the light,
Close your eyes for the night,
Does your mind go astray,
Are you running away from yourself?
Don't be afraid to ask for help
We shared so much together
Our dreams went on forever
Living like the day would never end
Then came the stormy weather
Our lives were torn and shattered
We were forced to stop and start again
It's never easy to face the fact
That you have made a mistake and yet
Isn't it time that you found
The purpose of living that brings peace of mind?
And where have you been?
(Where have you been? You've been away so long)
And what are you looking for?
(What are you looking for way out their on your own)
Tell me, old friend:
(Where have you been? You've been away so long)
When you turn out the light,
Close your eyes for the night,
Does your mind go astray,
Are you running away from yourself?
Don't be afraid to ask for help
If we were merely strangers
Oblivious to dangers
That living in the shadows can lead you to
I wouldn't speak so freely
But in your eyes, I see me
The lesson that life has taught me
I give to you
What you give out will come back to you
Isn't it time that you faced the truth?
Stop holding so much inside
Admit to yourself that you're not satisfied
And where have you been?
(Where have you been? You've been away so long)
And what are you looking for?
(What are you looking for way out their on your own)
Tell me, old friend:
(Where have you been? You've been away so long)
When you turn out the light,
Close your eyes for the night,
Where have you been?
When you're not strong, I'll be your shoulder
And where have you been?
(Where have you been? You've been away so long)
And what are you looking for?
(What are you looking for way out their on your own)
Tell me, old friend:
(Where have you been? You've been away so long)
When you turn out the light,
Close your eyes for the night,
When I was cold
When I was tired
I didn't know if anybody cared
But you see, I had to turn around and look at myself
Nobody else understood me
But I made it through and you can too
I've been missing you, old friend
I've been missing you, old friend
