Friends

My mother always sang, "Make new friends, but keep the old, one is silver and the other gold."

As a tribute to the friends I saw this past week and the hundreds of people they reminded me of from my past, the Lyrics to a song by Kenny Marks:

Friends will go anywhere with you
Friends share the good and the bad
The times that I share with my best friends
Are the best times that I've ever had

Whenever it's cold, dark and lonely
Whenever my heart's breaking too
And I'm needin' somebody to hold me
The love of a good friend comes through
When I'm facing a mountain of worry
That some people don't understand
A friend will stay right there beside me
Willing to give me a hand

Friends will go anywhere with you
Friends share the good and the bad
The times that I share with my best friends
Are the best times that I've ever had
Friends will go anywhere with you
Friends who really do care
And the times that I've really needed a friend
My best friends have always been there

Whenever I'm down and discouraged
The love of my friends never ends
My life's so much better for having
A life of good love and good friends
And wherever my life seems to take me
God, He knows how to answer my prayers
Cause when I'm needing somebody to talk to
A new friend somehow is there

Friends will go anywhere with you
Friends share the good and the bad
The times that I share with my best friends
Are the best times that I've ever had
Friends will go anywhere with you
Friends who really do care
And the times that I've really needed a friend
My best friends have always been there

Friends will go anywhere with you
Friends share the good and the bad
The times that I share with my best friends
Are the best times that I've ever had
The times that I share with my best friends
Are the best times that I've ever had
