Friends


My favorite Elton John song is Friends (1970) from the film about yong love of the same name. I was 16 when it was released, & it remains a favorite.




I hope the day will be a lighter highway
For friends are found on every road
Can you ever think of any better way
For the lost & weary travellers to go

Making friends for the world to see
Let the people know you got what you need
With a friend at hand you will see the light
if your friends are there then everything's all right
It seems to me a crime that we should age
These fragile times should never slip us by
A time you never can or shall erase
As friends together watch their childhood fly

Bernie Taupin
1970
