"A good friend would come and bail you out of jail but a true friend would bail you, sit with you and tell you, 'We messed up'" - Anonymous + Olawalium.
This is week 117 and the theme is "True Friends". For those who want to jump in on this too, here is your chance: [🎵 Hive Open Mic 117 - Worldwide Live Music Event]
Friendship is important and I always say that no one can make it out here all alone. We all need someone and some friends stick closer than family. Friendship is of the heart and it has no class barrier. It doesn't matter about the age because it is about the memories we are creating along the way.
I know a lot of people have lost even family members they can call friends because of how close and free they were, I know a lot of people have lost friends and people close to them which is why this song by West Life titled "Seasons in the Sun" is the song that perfectly fits into this theme for the week. It talks about friendship, people we have lost, and the memories we can fall back on since we don't have them close again. Friendship is of the heart and as long as you keep the flame alive in your heart and carry them everywhere you go with thoughts and fond memories, they can never die. They might be out of touch but certainly not out of mind. Friendship runs deeper and even distance can't pose a barrier to true friendship.

Title: "Seasons in the Sun"
Lyrics:
Goodbye to you, my trusted friend
We've known each other since we were nine or ten
Together we've climbed hills and trees
Learned of love and ABCs
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees
Goodbye my friend, it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that spring is in the air
Pretty girls are everywhere
Think of me and I'll be there
We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed
Were just seasons out of time
Goodbye papa, please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family
You tried to teach me right from wrong
Too much wine and too much song
Wonder how I got along
Goodbye papa, it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
Little children everywhere
When you see them I'll be there
We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song
Like the seasons have all gone
We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song
Like the seasons have all gone
Yeah yeah yeah
Goodbye Michelle, my little one
You gave me love and helped me find the sun
And every time that I was down
You would always come around
And get my feet back on the ground
Goodbye Michelle, it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
With the flowers everywhere
I wish that we could both be there
We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed
Were just seasons out of time
We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song
Like the seasons have all gone
We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed
Were just seasons out of time
We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song
Like the seasons have all gone
