    Whose foot is on the treadle/That turns the burning stars/Has spun the world half way round/Since last I called/Come down, come down.
    That stars that in September/Looked through the mournful rain/Now set their sight again/Upon a world half night, half light
    Men of distant years have said/That much depends on change of seasons/On solstices and equinox/And they have given reasons.
    I disagree./Too much turns on inadvertence/On what seems to be/An accident of hand and knee/A chance sunrise/A glance of eyes.

Even though we've changed and we're all finding our own place in the world, we all know that when the tears fall or the smile spreads across our face, we'll come to each other because no matter where this crazy world takes us, nothing will ever change so much to the point where we're not all still friends.
