Have You Known Nostalgia

Have you known nostalgia have you been moved to tears As you thought of your friends in your life's long gone years? And only memories of them with you do remain For in the flesh you may not see them again. The clock on our lives it just keeps ticking on Alone have you wept for the Seasons long gone? As you thought of friends in a town distant from a far shore Good memories of them with you remain just that and nothing more. You wonder with hair dyes do they cover their gray? They are the grand mums and grand dads of today Life's prime years go quickly as some like to say And the biological clocks they keep ticking away. Nostalgia is a thing few migrants have outgrown Do you think of the past and the friends you have known? And to know that you'll never more see them a sad thing to realize From the depths of your soul bring tears to your eyes.
