Play as the years go round,
Both best friends,
Both happy,
But now she’s home bound.

Never knew I’d lose her,
Or she’d lose me,
Cause we were so happy,
Can’t be what we once were.

But a job her dad did get,
Away from here,
Away from me,
But now we can’t quit.

Best friends had we always been,
And we’ll always bee,
We’ll just have to see,
A battle I just can’t win.

Maybe when we can drive,
I’ll visit you,
Or you’ll visit me,
To keep our friendship alive.

Never know what you lose,
Once it’s lost,
Or if it’s tossed,
For what you did choose.

Like my own family,
Was hers to me,
And mine to she,
Hope that will always be.

And if our friendship should dive,
On a cloudy day,
In the pouring rain,
May my words keep you alive.

Benjamin A. Wellman
