Old Friends

Hey, old friend,
Are you ok, old friend?
What’ll you say, old friend, 
Are we or are we unique?
Time goes by,
Everything else keeps changing.
You and I - we get continued next week.

Most friends fade,
Or they don't make the grade,
New ones are quickly made,
And in a pinch, sure they'll do.
But us, old friends,
What’s to discuss, old friend?
Here’s to us!
Who’s like us?
Damned few!
       ~ Stephen Sondheim
