Analysis of Old Friends
Time goes by never to return
Places and people melt together like snow and ice
Memories drift in and out of your life
Today you are young tomorrow you old
Everything changes in the blink of an eye
Life is a circle with only one way out
And when the time comes for you to move on
There is one thing you should to treasure
above all
Old Friends
The ones you can count on in joy and in pain
Stand by you through laughter and tears
Never ask why and always make time
This are the ones you never forget
There is a place for old friends that nobody can touch
Deep in you Heart
