Absent Friends

Driving, dreaming Drifting down the road, and back in time So deeply Laughing, smiling Standing in the home that once was mine Completely Close your eyes and say a prayer For just when I think you are there Like whispers in the summer air You’re gone, gone, gone... Looking back at my so-called life It all looked so easy Broken toys to broken hearts Fell apart so gently Keep on walking Time can heal, but nothing really lasts Forever Fading gently One day, all we’ll bе is photographs And memories So close your еyes and they’ll be there This secret world that can’t be shared In memory of absent friends They’re gone And just when you think you can catch them Just as you reach out to touch them Try with all your might But they’re gone They’re gone... "You're tuned into Livewire: the ghost of the East, playing spirit of the West. Man, this stuff just writes itself."
