Текст песни Modern Friendship - Chris Thile

Traveler may this year
Bring you closer to
The people you were
Closer to this time a year ago
Dear traveler you′re so familiar

Listener may your ears open wider
Than they've ever been
To bitter enemies and friends alike
Dear listener have you heard me
(Dear listener you′re so familiar)
Calling to you in a dream
That ends before you're ready
Floating down the river to the sea
And there the troubled waters
Take you far away from me

Reveler may your place
At the punch bowl this new year's
Be close to mine for auld lang syne
And cups of kindness deep as any ocean
Reveler we won′t remember
Floating down the river to the sea
Or how the troubled waters
Took you far away from me
′Cause that was then and this is '17
