Like Waves
Friends come and go
Friends come and go
Like waves in the ocean
They come and go
And as they go they leave us
Memories and experiences to remind us
All the bondings and happenings they've made
All the tears and laughters they've shared
All the connections and contributions they've done
With all the snow, the rain, the sun
The walk, the rush, the skate, the run
The motive, the objective, the mission, the fun
As they continue to work, to play, to sing with us
To dream, to scream, to live with us
Until they're gone, completely gone
Leaving everything that they have done.
Friends come and go
Like waves in the ocean
They come and go
And as they go they leave us
Everything to remind us...everything!
