Around
the corner I have a friend,
In
this great city that has no end,
Yet
the days go by and weeks rush on,
And
before I know it, a year is gone.
And
I never see my old friend's face,
For
life is a swift and terrible race,
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 that I'm 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.
Remember
to always say what you mean. If you love someone, tell
them. Don't be afraid to express yourself. Reach out and
tell someone what they mean to you. Because when you decide
that it is the right time, it might be too late. Seize
the day. Never have regrets. And most importantly, stay
close to your friends and family, for they have helped
make you the person that you are today. Pass this along
to your friends. It could make a difference. The difference
between doing all that you can or having regrets which
may stay with you forever.
