Niet door mezelf geschreven hoor! Iemand had het me laten zien op msn! Echt zooooooooo herkenbaar!
Around The Corner
Around the corner, I have a friend,
In this great city, that has no end,
Yet, the days go by, and the weeks rush on,
And before I know it, a year has 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,
As in the days when I rang his bell,
And he rang mine if, we were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired men.
Tired of playing a foolish game,
Tired of trying to make a name.
Tomorrow; I say, I will call on Jim
Just to show I am 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 sir, Jim died today.
And that's what we get and deserve in the end.
Around the corner, a vanished friend.
