Any Old Time
Timeless Bonds: Nostalgia and Friendship in Christopher Cross' Melody
Lyrics
Everyone maybe once or twice
Reflecting on the common experience of finding a lasting friend.
Finds a friend that's a friend for life
Emphasizing the rarity of a friend for life.
Somebody who believed in me like you
Expressing gratitude for someone who has always believed in the speaker.
From those days of childhood fights
Recalling childhood conflicts and challenges.
Through the nights when we'd ask advice
Referencing shared moments seeking advice during challenging times.
All of those times when nobody else would do
Acknowledging the uniqueness of the friend in crucial moments.
Any old time that you wanna hear from me
Offering availability and openness to communicate at any time.
To find your way or kick around a memory
Encouraging the friend to reach out for guidance or reminisce.
Like the old times
Reflecting on past experiences and memories.
Any old time will do
Reiterating the availability and willingness to connect at any time.
I can tell when the telephone rings
Sensing the friend's presence through incoming calls.
It's gonna be you just to talk about things
Highlighting the natural occurrence of communication when the friend is in thoughts.
It's funny how it seems to happen when you're on my mind
Noticing the friend's calls aligning with moments of reflection.
Every time good love goes bad
Addressing challenges in love and appreciating the friend's support during tough times.
When I can't believe the luck I've had
Expressing disbelief at the fortunate moments shared with the friend.
All of those times I'm glad you're a friend of mine
Gratitude for the friend's companionship during joyous occasions.
Any old time that you need to call on me
Reiterating the friend's availability for support and reflection.
To find your way or kick around those memories
Encouraging the friend to reach out for guidance or reminisce.
Like the old times
Recalling shared memories and experiences.
Any old time will do
Expressing continued openness to connect at any time.
Don't you ever forget
Emphasizing the importance of not forgetting the friend's support during challenging times.
Any old time when the road is getting rough to climb
Encouraging the friend to seek support during difficult moments.
And you think maybe you've had enough
Addressing the feeling of being overwhelmed and suggesting a return to familiar comforting times.
Just like the old times
Recalling past instances of supporting each other during challenging periods.
Any old time you're blue
Offering support during moments of sadness.
All at once I went and got a hunch
Expressing a realization or insight into the depth of the relationship.
Everything we ever felt was true
Acknowledging the authenticity of shared feelings.
As we find the years behind us and we live the years ahead
Reflecting on the passage of time and the importance of cherishing memories.
Let's remember laughter and all the words we said
Encouraging the preservation of laughter and meaningful words shared over the years.
Make new friends and keep the old
Advocating for the importance of both old and new friendships.
One is silver and the other one's gold
Highlighting the value of different friendships (silver and gold).
Something Sally said that stuck in my head
Referencing a memorable statement and the lasting impact it had.
And I never wanna let it go
Expressing a desire to hold on to meaningful statements and memories.
Any old time that you need to lean on me
Offering continuous support and a presence to lean on.
I'll be there, you can dream on me
Committing to being present in dreams and challenges.
Just like the old times
Recalling past moments of support and camaraderie.
Any old time will do
Reiterating the ongoing availability for connection and support.
