Friendship Outlives the Years

[Soft Felt Piano Intro] The thick photo album lies under the bed I flip each page and see us as kids [Verse 1] You step into the room with a plate of fruit Sit by me and revisit all our youth The photo under the mango tree at fifteen Now at thirty we still sit side by side [Pre-Chorus] Years pass, so many people through our lives So many relationships faded like smoke [Chorus] Friendship outlives the years Friendship stands firm through time Friendship outlives the years Longer than all the ups and downs [Verse 2] The album closes, I put it on the shelf Promise in ten years to flip through it again The next photo will have a few more wrinkles But the smile just like at fifteen [Chorus] Friendship outlives the years Friendship stands firm through time Friendship outlives the years Longer than all the ups and downs [Bridge] Don't promise to be together forever to be trendy Promise me one simple thing That when we're old we'll still sit and look at those photos [Chorus] Friendship outlives the years Friendship stands firm through time Friendship outlives the years Longer than all the ups and downs [Outro] Years may flow Friendship stays [Fade Out] [End]
