In the middle of his life
He left his wife
And ran off to be bad

Boy, it was sad
But he bought a new car
Found a new bar

And went under another name
Created a whole new game


And the days went by like paper in the wind
Everything changed, then changed again
It's hard to find a friend

It's hard to find a friend

Meanwhile then

His wife's boyfriend moved in and
Took over the house
Everybody was quiet as a mouse

And it changed their lives
Changed their plans
Slowly they grew apart

Boy, it woulda broke your heart

And the days went by like paper in the wind

Everything changed, then changed again
It's hard to find a friend
It's hard to find a friend
