1-4-12 I'm Going Back

Is there a name for old friends who have just met? When you think old friends you think of years spent together. When you think of just met I see awkward conversations of how school is going. Old friends talk about the obscure. They can communicate with the complete grammar and spelling with the twitch of an eyebrow or the raised corner of the mouth. Just met's stand awkwardly next to each other and talk about the weather. Old friends lay all over each other so you can't see who's legs and arms are who's. So the question is there a term a label, though I don't like either, that describes the friends who have just met but are already old friends? Perhaps the Muppets have something to say on the subject?

I'm Going Back There Someday


This looks familiar, vaguely familiar,
Almost unreal, yet, it's too soon to feel yet.
Close to my soul, yet so far away.
I'm going to go back there someday.

Sun rises, night falls, sometimes the sky calls.
Is that a song there, and do I belong there?
I've never been there, but I know the way.
I'm going to go back there someday.

Come and go with me, it's more fun to share,
We'll both be completely at home in midair.
We're flyin', not walkin', on featherless wings.
We can hold onto love like invisible strings.

There's not a word yet for old friends who've just met.
Part heaven, part space, or have I found my place?
You can just visit, but I plan to stay.
I'm going to go back there someday.
I'm going to go back there someday.
