Something new but still old

There is something new about you,
i cannot say what but it's there.

that something new is a something old,
something there that i never noticed.

when i said hello, you said howdy-do,
i asked what is up with you.

you said nothing at all just something new but something old.

you were always odd, but all the same i thanked god.

you are my loving friend, my best friend,

so when i see you i said it's not something new but something old,

it was something old that was something new.
