Much was so hard, yet so easy
Because you were always there
We were so broke, yet we soared so high
Yes, yes
Much was so hard, some so easy
Somehow you were always there
We were so broke, yet we soared so high
With you, I had the best time

We only needed each other and a place to crash
No five-star bunker, just an old minivan
Hung out on the street, no money for parties
And we ran from the Nazis
And then my first show, twenty people in a bar
No one cared, but you were there
We were like Ollie and Stan, McCartney and Lennon
Dre and Em, no one could separate us
We shared everything, laughed and cried together
Even without saying words, you knew what I meant
And you sat outside the door with a beer as a consolation
When things at home were tough for me

Much was so hard, yet so easy
Because you were always there
We were so broke, yet we soared so high
Yes, yes
Much was so hard, some so easy
Somehow you were always there
We were so broke, yet we soared so high
With you, I had the best time

When we meet again it feels like
I just stepped out of the room for a moment
And sometimes I write to you totally hungover
Buddy, I'm thinking about the old times
With a skateboard under my arm, smoking rolled cigarettes
Learning to roll joints and stealing Mercedes stars
The first time in love, crying until the pillow sticks
Women came and went, you witnessed it all

Much was so hard, yet so easy
Because you were always there
We were so broke, yet we soared so high
Yes, yes
Much was so hard, some so easy
Somehow you were always there
We were so broke, yet we soared so high
With you, I had the best time

Threw everything away, just to live our dream
Without you, I would have probably given up
It was so hard, yet so easy
Because you were always there
You were always there
You were always there
