PAUL SIMON lyrics : "old friends"

Old friends, old friends sat on their parkbench like bookends
A newspaper blowin' through the grass
Falls on the round toes of the high shoes of the old friends


Old friends, winter companions, the old men
Lost in their overcoats, waiting for the sun

The sounds of the city sifting through trees
Settles like dust on the shoulders of the old friends






Can you imagine us years from today, sharing a parkbench quietly
How terribly strange to be seventy


Old friends, memory brushes the same years, silently sharing the same fears
