She said “I wish somebody would have told me then that we were living in the good old times” Here’s the trick These are the times, right now while you’re alive These are the times They don’t have to be old to be good And it may have been a long time but it must be understood that even up until then it’s not the end The only guarantee about time is that old friends are good friends You don’t even have to be good friends By good I mean close, or speak often to know How the times have changed you both so much I think of you often but never draw you close or touch Or come close to the words I want to find so much You are living in the good times now If you choose to let nostalgia become the largest component I’m not living in the moment It’s standing up and not using your feet It’s thinking these thoughts and not choosing to speak It’s feeling this love but choosing not to believe It’s different for everyone Its here before me These thoughts may seem scattered and why does he keep changing the pattern? Life is a quilt of different times that I quit Then started again Getting back to your friend Give her a call, you promised
