As Long As Someone Sings A Song © Copyright George Papavgeris, April 2002 Originally written for the 39th birthday of Herga f.c., but purposely con- structed so as to allow updating and use in other circumstances. For many years I've had a friend, Thirty-nine and counting Together many times we've spent And this I won't forget. A song he had for everyone Thirty-nine and counting A better friend under the sun No-one could ever get. We shared much pleasure through the years Thirty-nine and counting A lot of laughter and some tears And this I won't forget. Together places we have been Thirty-nine and counting And many wonders we have seen And many folks we've met. And stories he had lots to tell Thirty-nine and counting Of angry sea and grassy fell And these I won't forget. Of kings and queens and gold and pearls Thirty-nine and counting And those with nothing in this world And wars with many dead. And hundreds knocked upon his door Thirty-nine and counting He cared as much for rich and poor And this I won't forget. Like branches of a royal oak Thirty-nine and counting To all provides both rest and cloak And equally accepts. CHORUS As long as someone sings a song As long as someone listens, As sure as summer follows spring And sun will rise and set, And even when we are long gone This story's never ending. As long as someone sings a song It isn't over yet. |
