Old Acquaintance
Those times we shared in such a hurry
How can I make it without you lot today?
You're the one, the one to carry
Standing in the rain for something I said
Never said we're gonna see this through
Always said it's your path that you'll choose
Never said we're gonna see this through
Always said it's your path that you'll choose
Those times we shared in such a hurry
How can I make it without you lot today?
You're the one, the one to carry
Standing in the rain for something I said
Never said we're gonna see this through
Always said it's your path that you'll choose
Never said we're gonna see this through
Always said it's your path that you'll choose
Five years wade in
Last week stayed in
Friendships close in
Friendships close not closed
Won't you realise your way of life
Before it goes?
Never said we're gonna see this through
Always said it's your path that you'll choose
Never said we're gonna see this through
Always said it's your path that you'll choose
Never said we're gonna see this through
Always said it's your path that you'll choose
Never said we're gonna see this through
Always said it's your path that you'll choose
Never said we're gonna see this through
Always said it's your path that you'll choose
Never said we're gonna see this through
