Best friends day, well, it came and went 
And not without incident 
On the hill they?re all moving in 
But I don't care much 
I'm dodging branches from Maple trees 
They?ve stolen heavy and steady sleep 
They seized every city street 
With tuition bought full dirt 

And I sat at the river with Ronnie 
Watching the Cormorants 
And the Osprey diving for their prey 
He asked about old friends 
I said, I ain't seen none of them 
He?s said, they?re all transient, man 
And their footprints they washed away 

Still I walk this town 
Hoping to get lost some how 
It seems by now though I've smoothed a path in every side walk 
It's all painted black and gold 
Black tar where once stood homes 
Gold in the hand of each student based franchise 

And I sat at the river with Ronnie 
Watching the Cormorants 
And the Osprey diving for their prey 
He asked about old friends 
I said, I ain't seen none of them 
He said, how?d you get here, man? 
And why?d you stay? 

Come on brother, let?s make a list 
Of all those gone that we still miss 
Let?s make a list of what they believed 
And we still do 
Like living first and working last 
And beating the day before it's past 
Like what?s mine is yours, man 
And what?s yours is mine 

I think I?ll stay here getting older 
And angrier 
And getting louder with each passing day 
And think about old friends 
And all that I have learned from them 
They may have moved on, man 
But we?ll all be gone someday
