Pink Martini & The Von Trapps - Friend lyrics

We were friends When we were children When we were learning Of this wild world Smiled and clapped Runin' through the tall green gra** Saving up our love to last Longer than a year When we watch the heavens turn Stars said that our lights would brightly burn So we searched our hearts of flame 'Till the day we went our separate ways... Friend 'Till we meet again And together face the end Burning through dark Like the shooting stars that mark The blackness of the sky Flame will throw a fire in our heart Fire raging like the sun Until the race is run And when the fight is done We'll smile like we did When we were children Sunrise Chasin' of the night's lights An arrow head the light strikes Our heart turned into stone As I've grown I've not forgot the seeds we've sown And slept beneath the cold white snow And prosper in the spring Still we watch the heavens swirl Desperately we chase the stars that whirl Now our hearts are all ablaze Racin' always racin' on their way Friend 'Till we meet again And together face the end Burning through dark Like the shooting stars that mark The blackness of the sky Though now we walk a wild and weary rode And the world is deadly cold We are devil bold As we smile like we did Like we were children Like we were learning Of this wild world...
