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...
tired of playng a foolish game,
"tired of trying to make a name.
tomorrow" i say "i will call on him
just to show that i'm thinking of him"
but tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes
and distance between us grows and grows.
around the corner, yet miles away...
"here's a telegram, miss," "your friend 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 him...
