FRIENDS
Mark Almond


So good to watch my friends dreaming
their lives away
So good to watch my friends dreaming all
through the day
If I could take them with me, well, you
know I would
If I could show them all the things that
I've seen, I wish I could

So sad to watch my friends growing
older
So sad to watch my friends growing
colder
If I could give them all some sunshine,
you know I would
If I could take them all to Monterrey,
I wish I could

So sad to watch my friends as they
watch me
So sad to hear them talking about the
things that used to be
One day perhaps I will buy myself a
big boat
And take all my friends away
Maybe one day I will buy myself an
island
And there with my friends you know
I'll stay.

So long, old buddies, I'm going
away
So long, old buddies, I'm leaving
today
But don't forget all the things
that we will do
And I know you'll spare a thought
