OFF OF THIS TRAIN (P. Fridhill/J. Hoffmann)

She’s getting off of this train
‘cause it’s going the wrong way
She’s saying goodbye to a friend
‘cause it’s really been long enough

At your birthday party eight friends are there
but every year, oh, one of them is replaced
oh why oh why I didn’t know i’d be the one this time

Friends they come and they go
and it proves to be all for the better

She travels alone for a while
now she’s coming up around the bend
new faces are waiting nearby
maybe even with a chance of a friend

What’s your birthday honey?
It’s a new phase, you are part of my life now
Maybe our star signs are compatible, and so
there’s a chance we’ll be working out

Friends they come and they go
there’s a sense in it all for the better

There are teachers and companions
soulmates and brief aquaintances
everybody has something to say
with everyone there’s a beginning and end
for every chapter a friend

Friends they come and they go
and it proves to be all for the better
Winds they whirl and they blow
there is always a change in the weather
