Sunday at six when they close both the gates
a widowed pair,
still sitting there,
Wonder if they're late for church
and it's cold, so they fasten their coats
and cross the grass, they're always last.

Passing by the padlocked swings,
the roundabout still turning,
ahead they see a small girl
on her way home with a pram.

Inside the archway,
the priest greets them with a courteous nod.
He's close to God.
Looking back at days of four instead of two.
Years seem so few (four instead of two).
Heads bent in prayer
for friends not there.

Leaving twopence on the plate,
they hurry down the path and through the gate
and wait to board the bus
that ambles down the street.

Review about For Absent Friends

Short but sweet. | Reviewer: Ryan W. | 12/3/2007

This song maybe only a minute but it could be one of the many gems of the album.This Phil Collin's first shot at singing with Genesis,its a bit of a premonition of what happens in the late 70's and 80's.This song is good but is also the start of Phil Collin's takeover in music.
