"Dear Friends" lyrics

"Dear Friends"

Dear Friends, how long has it been
Since I've written or tried to call
Things have changed and it's all over now
That I've had any time at all

Time to regain old friends
And recall lost memories
Time to begin again
What all the years have kept from me

Dear friends, I've been so busy
Goin' places I've never stayed
Meeting faces whose names live on
In some forgotten parade

Now time to still their voice
They no longer call my name
This life that was my choice
Became the price of empty fame

Dear friends, it would comfort me
To know you thought of me here once more
I need someone to remember me
Now isn't that what friends are for
Isn't that what friends are for
Isn't that what friends are for
