Story Behind The Song

Just thinking about someone I miss ....

Song Description

Savoring memories of old friends who are no longer living. About where they might be, and what we might learn.

Lyrics

An old friend stopped by the other day
To open up the closets of the past
So skeletons could dance from their hiding place
Cuz change is either here or closing fast.
We walked dense forest of memory
Knowing paths today we didn't then
We listened to the soft and minor melodies
And sang our songs
Sang our songs to absent friends.

Perhaps they've received their hearts desires
Where time's less than a shadow on the wall
Now that they've met the great simplifier
I hope love's the only memory they recall.
Funny how we knew when we were children
That time had no beginning and no end
Funny how we seem to have forgotten
Till we speak
Till we speak of absent friends.

I so love the dreams we shared together
I so love our travels on this earth
Perhaps the dreams and travels last forever
As birth and growth and death and then rebirth

And maybe one day we'll be reunited
Who knows what the universe intends
So raise your glass, raise your glass
Raise your glass to absent friends.
