about

This song is about my friends growing up a bit faster than me in many respects but still respecting me for who I am and never asking me to change. That's true friendship.

lyrics

If what they say is true
Then all good things have to come to an end
Oh no, oh no
But at least I'm not alone
I'm so lucky to call you my friend
I know, I know

Do you remember when we said
We won't let time go to our heads?
And now we're too far gone
And I can't expect you or anyone
To want to turn back the hands of time
Just once, just once

Things change and we'll grow up
But I'm standing here with my heart in my hands
Oh no, oh no
New friends they come and go
But I'll always have the three of us in
My heart, my soul

Do you remember when we said
We won't let time go to our heads?
And now we're too far gone
And I can't expect you or anyone
To want to turn back the hands of time
Just once, just once

You are all grown up now
And I've been left behind
I don't think you even realize
That this has been on my mind
And I know that you will be by my side
And I respect your ways
I just wish that you would stay
But in the corner of my eye
I can see you walking away

Do you remember when we said
We won't let time go to our heads?
And now we're too far gone
And I can't expect you or anyone
To want to turn back the hands of time
Just once, just once

(The backup vocals in this song were sung by my friends! Thanks Andrew (Sandshrew), Bobby (Bobbo), Jes (Grey Jes), Hadar (Goldar) and Luke (...Quags?)!)
