Old Friends


Creatures hum and click and buzz around me
       as I lie awake on that old wooden bridge
The moon looks very small
       in the great Yukon sky
All my friends are there.

       All my old friends are there
       They don't let them in the city
       All my old friends, all my old friends are there
       You can't see them in the city

Thinking back to the old days and the people I knew
       as I watch the stars above.
Where did they all go?
Some I've buried, some are missing
       and I'll never know.
       
       All my old friends are there
       They don't let them in the city
       All my old friends, all my old friends are there
       You can't see them in the city
     

Old Friends notes:

This song is for Andy.
Nothing in it makes any rational sense. It's just a feeling I had.
