A small group of boys walks down the street
Throwing a ball in the air
One says to another, hey I'll always be your brother
I'll always be your friend
Do you remember when we thought we were immortal
And the games we played always had a happy end
But in the game of life all the roses wither
Summer's here and three young men
Work's been hard, and the city's hard too
He picks up the phone and halfway across the country
Lift your voices loud and clearly
Sing for brotherhood right now
Lift your voices loud and clearly
Sing for sisterhood right now
Sometimes I wish that we all were immortal
And the games we played always had a happy end
But I know it's not true oh time keeps passing
But I'm just glad to spend my time with you
