Friends are Forever.

Summertime wasting
Away our lives
Flying through
Aeroplane dreaming
About the good things
Hidden behind the clouds

And you said,
"Every cloud has a silver lining
Every day has a fiery dawn
Everyone gets a new beginning."
And that's just so like you.

Eventide drinking
From a glass
A cup of malted
Whiskey burning
Away all common sense
With warm liquid fire

And you said,
"Every cloud has a silver lining
Every day has a fiery dawn
Everyone gets a new beginning."
And that's just so like you.

Afternoon crying
Through the farewell
Service of a father
You knew him complete
You've lost it completely
The light in your eyes is gone.

And you said,
Nobody lives forever
Every day has a blood soaked end
Nobody really accomplishes anything."
And that is so unlike you.

Sunday chafing
Under a sermon
You get up to go
The preacher calls your name
In a tear soaked confession
Life begins again.

And he said,
"Every cloud has a silver lining
Every day has a fiery dawn
Everyone gets a new beginning."
And I sat down and thought,
That's just so like you.
