Hey Friend Hey friend, don’t I know you, From those many years gone by, You used to live off Keynsham Street, Before the days could fly, You don’t remember me, man? Why, we shared our youth at school, Together, we were cowboys, And broke so many rules Hey girl, don’t you know me? Well I kissed you long ago, We saw that epic movie, In our first last picture show, Your looks are light and faded, And your life can tell you why, I used to think you knew me, Can you look me in the eye? Praise them, praise them, praise those days men, We were young and we were good, And knew all the things we should. We are spirits of the past, boys, And the words of the old school song, They stay gently in the mind boys, We recall them all so wrong, Can you put the names to faces, For the good times which we had? For now, we’ll keep our places, And the memories will stay bad. For the taste of life is bitter, In the mouths of broken men, But the love of life is special, And the flavour comes again, We used to drink together, Till they pulled the shutters down, Our voices, they are but nothing, Now the sorrows have been drowned. Praise them, praise them, praise those days men, We were young and we were good, And knew all the things we should.

about

The Greyest Bits is a collection of songs spanning 45 years, released to mark Mike Weaver's 65th birthday. This special Bandcamp edition includes brand new versions of five 'classic' MW compositions laid down at Polyphonic Studios in the hot summer of 2022. Edna's Garden, Mike's most recent track, appears for the first time on this new mini album. 'The Greyest Bits' is a companion to 'Too Soon It's Time To Fly' - and a limited issue CD, in presentation pack, combining both is available at Mike's concerts.
