Isn't it strange meeting you here
Two old friends just sitting down quietly drinking a beer
But knowing your past the way that I do
After all this time I'm surprised you'd even come to this rendezvous
They say you went and moved across the border
But you had to show up 'cause you knew it was a matter of pride
I know you're on the run, you shouldn't be here
But do you feel a fear when you meet
An old friend and the end is near?
It's strange we always go to church on Sunday
After getting right out of it on a Saturday night
And if we stay here too long I know
We'll quarrel and end up having a fight
Just a couple of losers putting the world to right
ย
Just two people having a beer
But on either side there is so much anger and so much fear
Just two people trying to get by
But we're torn apart because of
Different pressures from different sides
They say you're on the run from law and order
But you had to show up 'cause you knew it was a matter of pride
But beliefs aside, religion apart
Did you ever think about the suffering
You're causing all your broken heart?
The word is out that you are the informer
You gave me up without so much as a fight
So be a good friend and let me take you quietly without a fight
I'll be the one who's gonna take you home tonight
I'll be the one who's gonna take you home tonight
