Friends Again

©2017  Alexander Nichols/Gunther Trout

We can be friends

in an old fashioned way

We can be friends

We can start again

When we get old

And we slow down our tune

We'll still have cocktails for two 

And a dimly lit room 

Keepin' to ourselves
Except - at - Whole Foods
Where the latte is foamin'
And they don't mind us roamin'

We can be friendsin an old fashioned wayWe can be friendsWe can start againWhen we get oldAnd we slow down our tuneWe'll still have cocktails for two In a dimly lit room 

Give me your wrinkled hand
We'll dance together you'll understand
We'll pass through the years of smiles and tears
In our parade and our ten-piece brass band

Maybe we're not famous
And maybe we're not grand
But a little birdie told me
We're gonna make one last stand

We can be friendsin an old fashioned wayWe can be friendsWe can start againWhen we get oldAnd we slow down our tuneWe'll still have cocktails for two In a dimly lit room
