My oh my, time sure flies
|
I like what you've done to your hair
|
I've been fine, yeah, these boys are mine
|
That must be your little girl there
|
|
Some friendships grow distant with time
|
And it's no wonder, Emily, so much can change
|
We're too far to visit, too busy to write
|
But a closeness between us remains
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Best friends are made through smiles and tears
|
And sometimes that fades over miles and years
|
But I knew right away when I saw you again
|
Emily, we'll always be friends
|
|
I still sing now and then
|
Mostly at weddings for friends
|
And I just bet you still get
|
A yearning to paint now and then
|
|
They tore down our whole street
|
Now there's a bank where the house was we shared back in school
|
Remember we both have each other to thank
|
For all the boyfriends we're not married to
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
"Stay as you are and you'll go far"
|
You signed my yearbook
|
"Don't forget me when you're a big star"
|
|
We can't stay, it's getting late
|
And they said not to let you get tired
|
We'll just be up the street
|
The number's right here by your side
|
|
Oh no it's no trouble
|
I don't want to hear how all this changes my plans
|
I'll see you tomorrow
|
Call me tonight, Emmy, please let me do what I can
|
|
[Chorus]
