Friends Like Those

Oh it was the first week of June
And I already knew
For a while
That you’d be going
Soon as the summer began
But it didn’t set in
Until you were on that plane
It felt like I was losing
One of my very best friends
Sometimes we gotta leave
We gotta find the things
That we’re seeking
All the things we’re needin’
The things that you leave behind
Often will cross you mind
But you won’t forget them
You won’t ever forget them
‘Cause friends like those
Never really go
They never really say goodbye
And you and me are always gonna be
Best friends until we die
Until we die-e-e-e
Until we die-e-e-e
All some of my best friends
They already have children
They got lives with women
Women I’ve never met
Their kids probably wouldn’t
Know me from chocolate pudding
But I guess it’s just the same
I don’t think it changes a thing
Friends like those
Never really go
They never really say goodbye
And you and me
Are always gonna be
Best friends
Even after we die
After we die and turn to dust
And there ain’t no one around that remembers us
After we die and our bodies grow cold
And they ain’t no one who knows a thing
About the songs we wrote
The words you spoke
Or that joke you told me
When it’s all said and done
I bet we had a lot of fun
And just because we ain’t together again
Well that don’t mean you’re not my friend
No it don’t mean you’re not my friend
Yeah you will always be my friend
