Chance Meeting
Come, hold me by the hand, dear friends
Too long since our last meeting
So many years to make amends
So clasp my hands in greeting.
Why did we never keep in touch
Why leave it much too late?
Such friends we were and cared so much
This meeting now is fate.
We'll bridge the gap, the years between
And make a solemn vow
That time no more will intervene
To spoil our friendship now.
