All Our Friends
Remember the days that didn't end
Until you had talked to each and every friend
Those were the days when we depended on each other
When we all acted as if we were sister and brother
Our friendships just strengthened and ties tightened
Until that graduation day when we awakened
To find out the many different ways available to us
We left each other on planes, in cars, and even a bus
Discovering a new world full of excitement
With a mind directed towards work and accomplishment
the days and years have slipped on by
And old friends are gone and we wonder why
So find your friends from the old times
And pay attention to the borrowed words in these two lines
Friends are new and friends are old,
One is silver and the other is gold
