Longing
Eternal Bonds: Memories and Longing
Lyrics
My old friend, it's been too long
Expressing a reunion with an old friend after a considerable time.
Years have passed since you went home
Acknowledging the passage of years since the friend's departure.
And I remember the times of pain
Recalling moments of difficulty or distress.
A body once so strong
Reflecting on the friend's past physical strength.
I wish I'd said it all, but I know
Expressing a desire to have communicated more in the past.
That we'll meet again and forever I'll be by your side
Anticipating a future reunion and expressing eternal support.
In the afterlife

Shoeless walks
Depicting carefree walks without shoes.
Watch cartoons
Recalling shared moments, such as watching cartoons.
I thought you'd last forever
Expressing a belief in the friend's enduring presence.
Like the hero that never dies
Comparing the friend to an immortal hero.
Time always takes it's toll, it's our fate
Acknowledging the inevitability of time's impact on life.
The wheels keep on turning as life is connecting us all
Highlighting the continuous cycle of life and its connections.
'Till one day we return
