Текст Mason Jennings – Brand New Old Friend

There are no windows here in this courtroom, can’t tell if it’s day or night.
A smile on your face broke me out of this place. Suddenly it was alright.
So many people from so many walks, they all start shining whenever she talks.
The moon and the planets were just big old rocks until they saw the light.

Hello my brand new old friend, so glad to meet you again. We must go way, way back.
Don’t it just feel now like that? Oh how you matter to me, proof of the great mystery.
You make my heart feel free. Where have you been, brand new old friend?

Since I was little I’ve been afraid of dogs when they’ve come up to me.
Then I had a family and I started thinking, a dog might make them so happy.
So we started looking, who did we find? The sweetest expression, loving and kind,
looking up at me like she had read my mind. My fears melted away.

Hello my brand new old friend, so glad to meet you again. We must go way, way back.
Don’t it just feel now like that? Oh how you matter to me, proof of the great mystery.
You make my heart feel free. Where have you been?

Whenever I see you, my whole life feels brand new.
Everything speaks to me and I’ll face life hopefully.
When I can’t see your face, life is an empty place.
A lonely and endless race I just can’t win.

Brand new old friend, brand new old friend. x2
