Old Friends

guitar chords lyrics

The Four Freshmen

Old friends, old friends,
Sat on their parkbench 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 sunset
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 parkbench quietly
How terribly strange to be seventy
Old friends, memory brushes the same years,
Silently sharing the same fears

Old friends, memory brushes the same years,
Silently sharing the same fears
