Lyrics

I

heard

that you’re

set tled down,

that you

found a girl

and you’re

mar ried now.

I heard

that your dreams came true, guess she gave you things

I did n’t give to you.

Old friend,

why are you so shy?

Ain’t like you to hold back

or hide

from the light.

I hate to turn up out of the blue un in vit ed, but I could n’t stay a way, I could n’t fight it.

I had hoped you’d see my face and that you’d be re mind ed that, for me,

it is n’t o ver.

Nev er mind, I’ll find

some one like you.

I wish noth ing but the best

for you,

too.

Don’t for get me, I beg.

I re mem ber you said,

“Some times it lasts in love, but some times it hurts in stead.”

Some times it lasts in love, but some times it hurts in stead.

You know

how the time flies,

on ly

yes ter day

was the time of our lives.

We were born and raised

in a

sum mer haze, bound by the sur prise

of our glo ry days.

I hate to turn up out of the blue un in vit ed, but I could n’t stay a way, I could n’t fight it.

I had hoped you’d see my face and that you’d be re mind ed that, for me,

it is n’t o ver.

Noth ing com pares, no wor ries or cares, re grets and mis takes, they’re mem o ries made.

Who would have known how

bit ter sweet

this would taste?

Nev er mind, I’ll find

some one like you.

I wish noth ing but the best

for you,

too.

Don’t for get me, I beg.

I re mem ber you said,
