It has been a long long time
I wanted to see you again
My friend, I missed you so
Friend of my childhood.
Never thought we could just sit
And swing on the old swing
Like we did back then.
Chat about the other friends.
Where are they now?
What have they done?
Children do they have?
Are you happy?
Friend of my childhood
Tell me all, I need to know
Stories and hopes and dreams.
I yearn to hear it all.
So long it has been since we touched
A part of me now will settle
Just to know
You are well and happy,
Friend of my childhood
