Time Has Gone

The crowded campus of St. Elizabeth Square
We met each other through college friends
Between the years we missed a few
But in my hearts of hearts I needed you
We spent weekends at the Jersey shore
3 or 4 we share one room
Stayed at a motel in the summertime
Hanged up in large smokey joints,
To meet the guys.

You were there for me
I really needed you.
Missed you all those years.
Just a friend in need is a friend indeed.
Cherished moments spent over
50 years ago.
Where all that time has gone?
Hush now.
Don't ask me such mystical things.
I never will truly know.
