As the leaves fall away
In the distance children play
A boy and girl together in the sand

They will live learn and grow
In there heart mind soul
Gaining strength a woman or a man

Pre chorus:
No real reason they left you
No helping hand when you need one
There's no one in your corner you're incomplete

Chorus:
What ever happened to friends
Right by your side till the end
What ever happened to friends
You can trust forever
They all come back in the end
Line up again and again
What ever happened to friends
Sharing time together

Like a river filled with rain
Life is oh so full of change
Be yourself and you'll be in demand

Several years down the line
We all separate in time
In the end you'll count your true friends on one hand
