There is a time in life,
When one might meet a friend or two,
and maybe one that lasts a life time.
These friends are always there for you.
A long time ago, back in school days,
These days were full of relations.
Yes, but one friend came my way,
A crowd always followed in invasions.
Those were the days of college days.
Those books, and those lectures, and those dins.
Rules, rules, and more rules always coming our way.
Somehow behind the lecture hall, there was a win.
I loved to play ball games in the day of lost time,
It helped the time be taken control of and more.
Those books, and those study hours were not fine.
Then, there was a knock on the the door.
One of those friends came in to study.
How can I help you?
No, not that, lets party!
The others want too.
This life lasted for one long year.
There were the good days.
Then there were days of fear.
Sadness controlled in some ways.
Then a final handshake said everything.
One stayed put, and the other one traveled away.
California isn't so far away from things.
Those college days were now so long away.
Our lives were so far gone now, and left that way.
You made a family with lots of kin.
Had some kids, and grown all up today.
Good for you, its not a sin.
Well my life went on and on and on in some way.
No family, I just did what life called me to do.
