Old friends, old friends Sat on their park bench like bookends A newspaper blown through the grass Falls on the round toes Of the high shoes of the old friends Old friends, winter companions, the old men Lost in their overcoats, waiting for the sun
The sounds of the city sifting through trees Settle like dust on the shoulders of the old friends
Can you imagine us years from today? Sharing a park bench quietly How terribly strange to be seventy70 Old friends, memory brushes the same years Silently sharing the same fears
Time it was and what a time it was, it was
A time of innocence, a time of confidences
Long ago, it must be, I have a photograph Preserve your memories, they're all that's left you
