ABBA - The Way Old Friends Do Lyrics






You and I can share the silence
Finding comfort together
The way old friends do
And after fights and words of violence
We make up with each other
The way old friends do
Times of joy and times of sorrow
We will always see it through
Oh I don't care what comes tomorrow
We can face it together
The way old friends do

You and I can share the silence
Finding comfort together
The way old friends do
And after fights and words of violence
We make up with each other
The way old friends do
Times of joy and times of sorrow
We will always see it through
Oh I don't care what comes tomorrow
We can face it together
The way old friends do

We can face it together
The way old friends do
We can face it together
The way old friends do

We can face it together
The way old friends do
We can face it together
The way old friends do

ABBA The Way Old Friends Do Comments
  1. D.... F....

    We played this song at our wedding reception in June 1985. We gathered all of our friends and family in a circle around us as we prepared to leave on our honeymoon. Still married in 2019 and this song has such a special meaning for us, as do many of the ABBA songs. Still surrounded by many good friends. We can face life together, the way old friends do!

  2. A.... P....

    S.... W....

  5. D.... F....

    I feel this song like a friendship hymn. Don’t forget, the friends are how you chose and grow them.

  6. S.... E....

    ABBA had more talent than all of today's music industry put together twice

    S.... E....

    There is an interview with Frida for a Norwegian TV, that she says she is in touch with a fan who tried to kill himself, bht he hewrd that song, and changed his mind. So Frida was proud that her music saved one life

  18. D.... G....

    This should be made into a national anthem might make things better

  19. V.... M....

    Abba Reunion, the way old friends do.

  20. H.... P....

    My school friend of 60 years and l can relate to the words of this song.
    We live hundreds of kilometers apart but have always kept in regular contact..
    I love this song ..

  21. B.... ....

    I Bet This Song "The Way Old Friends Do" First Aired In The UK On 31st December 1980 At Midnight When Granada Closes Down At The Last Day Of 1980.

  22. L.... F....

    The women, Agnetha and Frida were born to sing together. Perfection.

  23. T.... C....

    They should record this in the studio and release it with the 2 new songs. This is not just a song. This is an anthem for world peace.

  24. D.... G....

    STOP BREXIT NOW!!!!!!!

    D.... G....

    @chelseacharger here is an article frim a mainstream source telling essentially the same thing. For Britons, Brexit is still part of WWIi. For them, the conflict never ended. Check yourself: https://www.csmonitor.com/World/Europe/2019/0328/Battle-of-Britain-s-history-How-the-myth-of-WWII-shaped-Brexit

    D.... G....

    @chelseacharger here, one of the most popular newspapers in the UK connecting WWII and Brexit. https://www.google.com/search?q=brexit+propaganda&tbm=isch&ved=2ahUKEwiV1_rZ5OjlAhWCkp4KHXbaDjQQ2-cCegQIABAB&oq=brexit+propaganda&gs_l=mobile-gws-wiz-img.3..0l4j0i5i30.236492.240984..241114...0.0..0.95.1452.18......0....1.......65..41j41i67j41i7i30j41i13j41i30j0i67.y7KB70fsLuw&ei=ic3MXdXuG4Kl-gT2tLugAw#imgrc=6vBqd157I1j8pM

    D.... G....

    I'm sorry but to me it's just a cynical way to garner support by promoting prejudice and xenophobia.   Millions of Britons travel to various parts of Europe every year whether on business or on holiday.   Do you think they believe they are going into 'enemy' territory?     The wars are long gone yet some want to drag them back up for their own political purposes.

    D.... G....

    @chelseacharger that is the problem. The "Blitz Nostalgia" is not a phenomenon that I invented. I read it on this article at the Guardian for example https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/dec/30/brexit-blitz-spirit-nostalgia-toxic-world-war-two in the UK, people miss the good days of WWII. They want their "finest hour" back, they are fond of a solidarity economy that resulted from rationing. So neighbours and relatives would share their carrots and turnips with each other, when you visited someone, you would bring some coal as a present, and people want that back. And yes, I know veru y well tge Britons abroad, especially in southern Spain and Portugal, where they create their own little ghettos, and eefuse tonlearn a single word of the local language. I am not making that up. It is all in the news.

  25. M.... T....

    Thank you for everything sirs and ma’ams Of #ABBA!

  33. C.... H....

    Agnetha la mas hermosa...

  34. L.... A....

    Hay grupos k tienen poca o nula creatividad

  35. E.... P....

    It was used during new year's eve programming Closedown after their countdown in the 80's (Including US and ITV stations)

  36. R.... E....

    for those of us who have lived through the early rock ,n roll. 60s music and to have lived when ABBA was part of great music has been a delight

  37. E.... M....

    Fridas voice is so beautiful and overlooked and underappreciated.

    E.... M....

    I see a lot of peolle praising her.

  38. m.... t....

    Gracias grupo Abba, inolvidables sus canciones nunca los olvidare, cantan como los ángeles, saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱🇸🇪

  39. V.... M....

    I'm crying........ So overwhelming! 😍😍😍😍😍😢

    V.... M....

    Smile...they only gave us love..

  40. g.... ....

    I love the way this song just builds and builds. I can imagine sitting in the concert hall and being in raptures. Two angels singing in harmony. Just great!

    g.... ....

    In think Bjorn is also singing

  41. R.... T....

    I love their costumes and style how they dress. Well I was born 1978 at abba prime and my parents could tell me more but I have old records of abba and pics and listened to it when I was a child not really understandig a lot since did not speak English at the time. But now I know that the world was better then and that the love was more romantic though the same way cruel like today so we still suffer from divorce etc. I Did divorced too and now I know that it was a mistake. But my only hope and hope for similar people is that GOD loves us all and will forgive us that we hurt hearts of our loved ones!!! ❤❤😥

  42. M.... G....

    I'm crying into my mac n cheese

  43. J.... B....

    This should be our planet's Anthem! Powerful!

  52. a.... P....

    This song was unknown to me. I have just heard it sung on the one show. What a lovely song.

  53. T.... S....

    This is not only a song. It's a revelation and it's about living and dying, farewell and eternity, love and sadness. It's soul shaking!!

  54. P.... C....

    What a brillant song love all of abbas music best group of all times have listened to their music for so many years

  55. G.... G....

    k.... b....

    F*** you

    k.... b....

    You guys should check Frida's interview for a Norwegian TV. There she mentions how this song helped to prevent a suicide of a fan, and how she is in touch with that guy. Abba can save lives

  57. A.... i....

  58. M.... C....

  63. j.... a....

    Excelent , beautiful song.My favorite Band.

  64. 4.... ....

    If Europe was the Europe of friendship between peoples this song could have been its anthem. I have a dream...

  65. p.... s....

    Who has heard this at Busch gardens Williamsburg in Scotland

  66. �.... �....

    Что то они здесь сами на себя не похожи ,очень сильно растянуло их плазменное телевидение ,у девчонок ноги получились очень толстые не естественные ,просто кошмар ,да и тела тоже растянуты .Хорошая группа ,но телевидение их здорово изуродовало.Тамара .

  67. W.... O....

    Great composers, great songs, great singers and great music always outlive the skeptics, aka ABBA.

  68. A.... A....

    My friend, I'll always do the same way for you... thank you, ABBA.

  69. s.... ....

    This song is gorgeous and majestic!

    s.... ....

    It reminds me of " we can work it out" by the beatles. It is a band singing about reconciliation, before both bands disbanded forever

  70. a.... a....

    0:51, Agnetha's ' box gap ' :)

  71. �.... �....

    Красивые пары, красивые у них были песни, пока они любили друг друга...

  72. J.... G....

    A.B.B.A., four magnificent people. Performing world wide as ABBA, including tours behind the Iron Curtain, these four people did more for world peace than any idiot politician ever did. As ABBA, they were and are so much more than the greatest band in history, each of these four showed the world what Happy and Love was all about...via their music and presence.

  73. b.... ....

    This Evergreen classic will last forever
