Frost* (Rock)
Absent Friends
[Verse 1]
Driving, dreaming
Drifting down the road, and back in time
So deeply
Laughing, smiling
Standing in the home that once was mine
Completely

[Chorus]
Close your eyes and say a prayer
For just when I think you are there
Like whispers in the summer air
You’re gone, gone, gone...

[Bridge]
Looking back at my so-called life
It all looked so easy
Broken toys to broken hearts
Fell apart so gently

[Verse 2]
Keep on walking
Time can heal, but nothing really lasts
Forever
Fading gently
One day, all we’ll bе is photographs
And memories
[Chorus]
So close your еyes and they’ll be there
This secret world that can’t be shared
In memory of absent friends
They’re gone

[Chorus]
And just when you think you can catch them
Just as you reach out to touch them
Try with all your might
But they’re gone
They’re gone...

[Spoken Outro]
"You're tuned into Livewire: the ghost of the East, playing spirit of the West. Man, this stuff just writes itself."
