Rex, Jay and Robert

I heard my name Called loud and strong A voice filled with joy Happy to see me A man who called me friend From the things we’ve done Walking now I think back How very many years have pasted From that bright warm day Memories now are all I have He has long since pasted away Another man I once knew And many things we did Before the world we raised our voice And sang many a day We traveled far and near To many a different stage Oh the joy that we had I think of him too A star once sang upon the stage And all the world knew he And I in the choir sang And yet he liked me too He also called me friend And I wondered why Why those men and many more Chose to call me friend But now their voices have been stilled No more they call my name In silences memory that all lay Voices just in memories now All else has faded away
