A Song for my friends
Music & lyrics by Matthew Garlin
I know we never thought it would get like this
But leave it all to chance
Part of the time you sit and wait
The other times you dance
And maybe this is where it should end
The parting of two good friends
I believe there is a better work in store
We can’t keep stalling
I want to know that you can move
I don’t want you crawling
And time is time and it works true
But it starts to work against you
And I lift a glass to my friend
I hope that you find serenity
And I lift a glass to my friend
Please never forget about me
I know you can’t stay forever
I know we don’t travel together
But wherever you go always know
That wherever the road may bend
I will lift my glass to my friend
You’ve had your troubles and I got mine
Things are tough as you go along
And I know we can’t stand around
Trying to sing a song
I wish to God that I was still there
But know that I will always care
You go your way and I will go mine
This is hard even to think
I want to believe that if I see you
I can always buy you a drink
It’s not what I wish to do
I wish I could stay with you
And I lift a glass to my friend
I hope that you find serenity
And I lift a glass to my friend
Please never forget about me
I know you can’t stay forever
I know we don’t travel together
But wherever you go always know
That wherever the road may bend
I will lift my glass to my friend
And I look at you from afar now
You look so grown
Who would have guessed from all these years
Life is still shown
And I know you need your space
And this is the end
But I will think of you with fond memories
I miss you, my friend
And I lift a glass to my friend
I hope that you find serenity
And I lift a glass to my friend
Please never forget about me
I know you can’t stay forever
I know we don’t travel together
But wherever you go always know
That wherever the road may bend
I will lift my glass to my friend
And I lift a glass to my friend
I hope that you find serenity
And I lift a glass to my friend
Please never forget about me
I know you can’t stay forever
I know we don’t travel together
But wherever you go always know
That wherever the road may bend
I will lift my glass to my friend
