The Koobas - Where Are the Friends? lyrics

And now for Miss Lucy Nation Of fifty two La Shaft street London west two For her son Stan, now serving in the Lebanon We have a number about something everybody needs Friends, ow As the twilight leads the way For darkness over earth descending No ones there to welcome home The lonely one who's journeys ending Nothing but the memories That linger in the mind forever Memories of precious things But meaningless till we're together Where are the friends That I thought would be here Maybe they've all lost their way Or was I wrong when I thought them sincere Have they forgotten the day Comrades of my childhood In adventures of our minds creation Growing up as close as brothers With no thoughts of separation But it came and I believe Our plan to meet again was honest Did the years in pa**ing Wear away the meaning of the promise Where are the friends That I thought would be here Maybe they've all lost their way Or was I wrong when I thought them sincere Have they forgotten the day And if I say will we all meet again If they remember to come Just one old friend who would kindly explain Why I'm the only one As the twilight leads the way For darkness over earth descending No ones there to welcome home The lonely one who's journeys ending Nothing but the memories That linger in the mind forever Memories of precious things But meaningless till we're together Where are the friends (where are the friends) Ah where are the friends
