I heard that you're settled down 00:01

That you found a girl and you're married now 00:08

I heard that your dreams came true 00:16

Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you 00:22

Old friend, why are you so shy? 00:30

Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light 00:36

I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited 00:43

But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it 00:48

I had hoped you'd see my face 00:52

And that you'd be reminded that for me, it isn't over 00:54

Never mind, I'll find someone like you 01:00

I wish nothing but the best for you, too 01:06

Don't forget me, I beg 01:13

I'll remember, you said 01:16

Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead 01:20

Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead 01:28

You know how the time flies 01:36

Only yesterday was the time of our lives 01:45

We were born and raised in a summer haze 01:52

Bound by the surprise of our glory days 01:58

I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited 02:06

But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it 02:10

I had hoped you'd see my face 02:14

And that you'd be reminded that for me, it isn't over 02:16

Nothing compares, no worries or cares 02:59

Regrets and mistakes, they're memories made 03:03

Lyrics:

[English]

I heard that you're settled down

That you found a girl and you're married now

I heard that your dreams came true

Guess she gave you things I didn'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, uninvited

But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it

I had hoped you'd see my face

And that you'd be reminded that for me, it isn't over

Never mind, I'll find someone like you

I wish nothing but the best for you, too

Don't forget me, I beg

I'll remember, you said

Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead

You know how the time flies

Only yesterday was the time of our lives

We were born and raised in a summer haze

Bound by the surprise of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited

But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it

I had hoped you'd see my face

And that you'd be reminded that for me, it isn't over

Never mind, I'll find someone like you

I wish nothing but the best for you, too

Don't forget me, I beg

I'll remember, you said

Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead

Nothing compares, no worries or cares

Regrets and mistakes, they're memories made

Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Never mind, I'll find someone like you

I wish nothing but the best for you

Don't forget me, I beg

I'll remember, you said

Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead

Never mind, I'll find someone like you

I wish nothing but the best for you, too

Don't forget me, I beg

I'll remember, you said

Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead

Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead...
