Friends For a Day, Strangers Forever

Wind torn faces, feeling cold
Venture out if you feel bold
Never do what you are told
Its snowing once again

People talk, Oh the weathers bad
Hoarding food, are people mad
It must be the worst we have ever had
Theyre talking once again

I wish the train would arrive soon
Ive booked my holiday I go in June
I know lets all sing a tune
The trains cancelled once again

Oh its so cold, have you far to go
My dad said it was going to snow
Its more than Fish and Kettley know
Cameraderie once again

Four hours it took to get home last night
You would think someone would get it right
At last, I think the train is in sight
Blame British Rail again

The mighty thaw, the snow all clears
The people smile, the nation cheers
The new found friends dont talk for years
Were strangers once again
