I Miss You Old Friend Lyrics - Dreamgirls Soundtrack

JAZZ SINGER
(Loretta Devine, Originator of the role of LORELL in the Broadway Musical "Dreamgirls")

I MISS YOU, OLD FRIEND
CAN I HOLD YOU?
AND THOUGH IT’S BEEN A LONG TIME,
OLD FRIEND
DO YOU MIND?
THERE WERE SO MANY THINGS
I WISH I HAD SAID
I MEANT TO LOVE YOU
BUT I HURT YOU INSTEAD
I’VE COME HERE NOW
TO MAKE AMENDS
CAN I SIT DOWN BESIDE YOU?
CAN WE BE CLOSE AGAIN?
’CAUSE I... I MISS YOU, OLD FRIEND
CAN I HOLD YOU?
AND THOUGH IT’S BEEN A LONG TIME,
OLD FRIEND
DO YOU MIND?
I’M HOPING THAT YOU
WILL FEEL THIS WAY TOO
’CAUSE I MISS YOU, OLD FRIEND
I MISS YOU
