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 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 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.
