Around the corner I have a friend,
In this big 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 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 but we were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired old 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.
Gillies, Colin Merle and Bridget, would like to thank all their family
friends and all the wonderful friends
of our beloved son David for the cards e-mails and flowers.
David was the most wonderful son brother and friend lent to us for such
a short 27 years.
Our lives as a family has been changed forever.
