Story behind the song
In the 3 stages of a suffered betrayal, this one moves on to heal and find joy in the company of a true friend
Lyrics
Fair-Weather Friends"
Words & Music By Tom Tognaci
The songbird sings in the warm summer sun
Its song is sweet and endearing
But when it has sung the last note on its tongue
It flies away, disappearing
For oh, the sun may stop shining
And oh, the snow falls cold
And oh, that winters wind may throw
A tantrum to behold
Youll hold my hand, and thats all right by me
Its all been fine and fair sailing
You smile and I nod, and we always agree
But will it go without failing?
For oh, the sky may turn bitter
And oh, the rain may come
And yes, that devil wind may send
Those clouds to block the sun
All those fair-weather friends, theyll up and run, like the birds that leave the trees
While the songbird chases the summer sun; Ill be left behind to freeze
Left behind to freeze
Now,
Let it be known that this story Ive told
Was once first penned a cappella
But when a wild storm brewed and its big thunder rolled
You up and shared your umbrella
Oh, how the sky had opened
With a trumpets golden sound
The dark clouds went their separate ways
And a true-blue friend was found
A true-blue friend was found
All those fair-weather friends, theyll up and run, like the birds that leave the trees
While the songbird chases the summer sun; Ill be chasing you on skis
In the frosty mountain breeze
