Me and My Friends
Me and my friends,
we have got it all.
We will always be going forwards;
it doesn’t matter about anything.
We will never get bored.
We always have a little trouble
or some strife,
but we will always be here.
We will make these the best years
of our lives.
Me and my friends —
we don’t know how to fly,
but if it is my friends and I,
I am sure we can give it a try.
And if we fail, well, then it does not matter:
happy to the end,
we have got it all —
me and my friends.
James Garratt – November 1995
