stephen sondheim - old friends (part ii) lyrics
mary
here’s to us
frank
who’s like us?
charley
d-mn few
frank
hey, old friend
are you okay, old friend?
what do 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 friend
what’s to discuss, old friend?
here’s to us —
who’s like us?
d-mn few!
charley
so, old friend
fill me in slow, old friend
start from h-llo, old friend —
i want the when, where and how
old friends do
tend to become old habit —
never knew
how much i missed you till now
all three
most friends fade
or they don’t make the grade
new ones are quickly made
some of them worth something, too
but us, old friends —
what’s to discuss, old friends?
frank
tell you something
good friends point out your lies
whereas old friends live and let live
mary
good friends like and advise
whereas old friends love and forgive
frank
and old friends let you go your own way —
charley
help you find your own way —
mary
let you off when you’re wrong —
frank
if you’re wrong —
charley
when you’re wrong —
mary
right or wrong, the point is:
old friends
shouldn’t care if you’re wrong —
frank
should, but not for too long —
charley
what’s too long?
frank
if you’re wrong —
charley
when you’re wrong —
mary
the thing is:
old friends do leave their brands on you
but old friends shouldn’t compete
frank
old friends don’t make demands on you —
charley
should make demands on you —
frank
well, don’t make demands you can’t meet
charley
well, what’s the
point of demands you can meet?
mary
well, there’s a time for demands
whether you meet them or not…
all three
hey, old friends
how do we stay old friends?
who is to say, old friends
how an old friendship survives?
one day chums
having a laugh a minute
one day comes
and they’re a part of your lives
new friends pour
through the revolving door —
maybe there’s one that’s more
if you find one, that’ll do
but us, old friends —
what’s to discuss, old friends? —
here’s to us!
who’s like us?
d-mn few!
