Around the corner I have a friend,
In this great city that has no end,
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it, a year is gone.
And I never see my old friends face,
For life is a swift and terrible race,
He knows I like him just as well,
As in the days when I rang his bell.
And he rang mine if, we were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired men.
Tired of playing a foolish game,
Tired of trying to make a name.
"Tommorow" I say "I will call on Jim"
"Just to show that I'm thinking of him."
But tommorow comes and tommorow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.
Around the corner!- yet miles away,
"Here's a telegram sir" "Jim died today."
And that's what we get and deserve in the
end.
Around the corner, a vanished friend.
Remember to always say what you mean. If you
love someone, tell them. Don't be afraid to
express yourself. Reach out and tell someone
what they mean to you. Beause when you decide
that it is the right time, it might be too late.
Seize the day. Never have regrets. And most
importantly, stay close to your friends and
family, for they have helped make you the
person that you are.
