Hold on to things you cherish
For they quickly fade away
No matter how much they mean
They'll just disappear one day
Don't take the people you love for granted
Even if you haven't known them long
They might be here right now
But they could suddenly be gone
Never hold back the I love you's
If it's what you really feel
Never hold back what you feel in your heart
Or you'll have a pain too deep to heal
Never speak words from your mind
If you don't mean it with your heart
A word spoken out of anger
Could make a friendship fall apart
Hug a friend when you see them
You never know which hug will be the last
One day that person will fade away
And be a pigment of your past
Eventually you'll have to say good-bye
No matter how close you may be
As soon as Love's created it's destroyed
And friendship becomes just a memory
