Meg Baird - Friends

So good to watch my friends dreaming their lives away So good to watch my friends dreaming all the day If I could take them all with me, you know I would If I could show them all the things that I’ve seen, I wish I could So sad to watch my friends growing older So sad to watch my friends growing colder If I could give them all some sunshine, you know I would If I could take them all to Monterey, I wish I could So sad to watch my friends as they watch me So sad to hear them talking about the things that used to be One day perhaps I will buy myself a big boat And take all my friends away Maybe one day I will buy myself and island And there with my friends you know I’d stay So long! I am going away! So long! I am leaving today! And don’t forget all the things that we would do And I know you’ll spare a thought for me, I’ll save a prayer for you
