Mark almond friends lyrics

So good to watch my friends dreaming their lives away

So good to watch my friends dreaming all through the day

If I could take them with me, well, you know I would

If I could show them all the things that I've seen, I wish I could



So sad to watch my friends growing older

So sad to watch my friends growing colder

If I could give them all some sunshine, you know I would

If I could take them all to Monterrey, I wish I could



So sad to watch my friends as they watch me

So sad to hear them talking about the things that used to be

One day perhaps I will buy myself a big boat

And take all my friends away

Maybe one day I will buy myself an island

And there with my friends you know I'll stay.



So long, old buddies, I'm going away

So long, old buddies, I'm leaving today

But don't forget all the things that we will do

And I know you'll spare a thought for me

I'll say a prayer for you
