Around the corner I have a friend
In this great city that has no end,
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it, a year is gone.

And I never see my old friend's face.

For life is a swift and terrible race,
He knows I like him just as well,
As in the days when I rang his bell,

And he rang mine.

But we were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired people.
Tired of playing a foolish game,
"Tomorrow" I say "I will call on Tim"
"Just to show that I'm thinking of him."

But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.
Around the corner-yet miles away,

"Here's a telegram sir-"
"Tim died today."

And that's what we get
and deserve in the end.

Around the corner, a vanished friend.

So...

If you love someone, tell them.
Remember always to say what you mean.
Never be afraid to express yourself.
Take this opportunity
to tell someone what they mean to you.
