Verse 1 We were eighteen, broke as hell Drinking wine we couldn’t name Some roadside town outside Lyon Sleeping in my Opel Kadett You smoked too much, I said it nightly You called me paranoid again We played cards till bars were closing Then talked till morning came Chorus I’ll never get another friend like you Man, we had some years Still hear you laugh sometimes When I crack a beer I’ll never get another friend like you Wish you were still here Verse 2 You still picked up after midnight Said “who died?” when I called late You spent money like a rich man And then couldn’t pay for beer You never found somebody steady But damn, you smiled all through my wedding day Late that night we drank a beer Like nothing in the world had changed Chorus I’ll never get another friend like you Man, we had some years Still hear you laugh sometimes When I crack a beer I’ll never get another friend like you, Wish you were still here Verse 3 Then one night you sounded tired Said the doctors found something bad Two weeks later we both cried First time we ever did that You still smoked, even in that bed Said the nurse allowed it I kept trying not to show the pain But we both knew the truth Slow Piano Break Bridge We never talked too much Never said things face to face Just beer or wine and jokes all night Always showing up You drove me crazy half the time I know I did the same Guess that’s just how friendship looks When it’s built to last Final Chorus I’ll never get another friend like you, Eddy Man, we had some years… Still hear you laugh sometimes When I crack a beer I’ll never get another friend like you, Eddy Wish you were still here… Still here…
