Hello my friend, for it has been awhile
And in your absence, I've tried to smile
But again you come, to shadow my mind
And in the silence, your essence I'll find
Your icey grip, which chills to the bone
Will once again, turn this heart to stone
You'll whisper your words, into my ear
Sowing seeds of doubt and planting fear

Times of happiness, are but short and fleeting
So for you old friend, I will extend a greeting
We will take this long journey, just you and I
And in your solemn silence, time will go by
Fate will appoint us, to find new friends
But as in the past, they'll be gone again
It is for the best, for us to travel alone
All traces will vanish, forgotten when gone

I have accepted you, as I have my fate
My mind is weary, and my time grows late
Your company it seems, both blessing and curse
At my side, through the bad times and worse
We've traveled together and witnessed events
And as I look behind, I see but one set of prints
For the solitude is real, as time and space
The battle is over, and I have found my place

Is that a Kenny Rogers song?
