Memories of Days Gone By

I’ve enjoyed the days of other-when
With all my good old friends
But today is where I now abide
The past can only be a guide

I truly miss my friends of yore
And all the fun we had before
Those memories are truly golden
And to my friends I am beholden

But life moves on so very fast
That memories are all that last
The things I do with my new friends
I know that they too soon will end

And what today seems sharp and crisp
Will soon be as a will-o-wisp
