We've been together A hundred nights and more Put ten thousand miles on the clock But the year is almost over And other voices call And so this journey has to stop Whatever roads may follow The parting of the ways In times of doubt and danger Think about this moment Look back on these days And don't be a stranger The spoils have been divided Numbers exchanged Promises made to keep in touch All the secrets we confided All the lives we gently changed But best intentions only mean so much Whatever roads may follow The parting of the ways In times of doubt and danger Look back on these moments Think about these days Don't be a stranger Time and space conspire To gently douse the fire Of friendship we fought so hard to light So pass this way again Let our laughter fan the flames It's embers will warm us through the night
