Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Farewell my friend
My beautiful friend
Farewell

You take the high road
And I'll take the low road
And we'll meet again
Farewell my friend

I love you
In a funny way

You take the high road
I'll take the low road
And we will meet again
Farewell my friend

Oh I want to see you again
Oh farewell
Farewell
Oh I want to see you again
Farewell
Oh I'm on the mountain again
Oh farewell
Oh I want to see you again
Oh my friend
Oh that's when I'll see you again




Farewell
Oh I want to see you again

Overall Meaning

The song "All My Friends" by Trash Tommy/Piper Tom/Mr. Wilson starts with a goodbye message to a friend. The lyrics "Farewell my friend, my beautiful friend, farewell" symbolize a departure for someone the singer has strong emotions for. The next few lines talk about taking different paths - "You take the high road, and I'll take the low road," which could be interpreted as different paths in life or different ways of dealing with the separation. The repetition of "Farewell my friend" towards the end emphasizes the finality of the departure.


The lines "I love you, in a funny way" suggest a complex relationship between the two individuals. The use of the phrase "funny way" could mean that the singer is unsure of their own feelings or that the relationship itself was unconventional. Additionally, the line emphasizes that love can take many forms, not just the traditional romantic kind. The chorus ends with a hopeful note, stating that they will meet again - "You take the high road, I'll take the low road, and we will meet again, farewell my friend."


Overall, "All My Friends" is a heartfelt tribute to a friend who is departing. The lyrics express the complex emotions one can feel while saying goodbye to someone they care deeply for, while also acknowledging that the separation is not permanent and that they will meet again in the future.
