Friendship

That night that meeting, that bus stop
greeting

was started with a simple
prompt

we sang a song for your years, a curse on your
fears

Did u appreciate my
friendship?

That night, that food, a restless
mood

As we waited for our oral
fix

As I filled your glass, serving me
last

Did u appreciate my
friendship

That night that wine, that made us feel
fine

As we communicated with
strangers

Who gave 3 cheers, to your restless
years

Did u appreciate my
friendship

That night, that meal, the feel of cold
steel

Vanishing in my drunken
nerves

As I pushed you around, in a trolley through
the town

Did u appreciate my
friendship?

Those hugs, that smile, we smiled all the
while

As we staggered through the
rain

Talking of aspirations, full of
elation

Our imaginations
strained

Did you appreciate our
friendship?

That night those glances, upper deck
dances

Made the bus driver turn into a
dj

By flicking the lights as he drove through the
night

Such a crazy ecstatic
display

That night, those spliffs, those crazy
riffs

As we sat in that smoky
room

And philosophised, about the sighs of the
skies

Did u appreciate my friendship?
