Its been a long time since we hung around together in the street
And I miss those days when the world would wait for us
With our crowd of friends wed sit along the pavement near your house
Til the sun came down and we brought the stars out….
(stars out…)

When I heard it for the first time I could only stand and cry.
You were just a boy, we were all so innocent.
Oh, we never thought this kind of thing would happen in our lives
But it broke our hearts and we wont forget, no.

All this time has fallen through me since youve been gone,
and I wonder where you are, cause youve never let me know, no no no.
Youre always going too soon.
Im always left on my own.
Its ok, Ill understand.
Sometimes life can hold you down.

I can see your face as clearly now today as I could then
And it doesnt fade, but the times have changed so much
I would like to tell you all about the things that we have done
And were doing fine, but I think you know that…

All this time has fallen through me since youve been gone,
and I wonder where you are, cause youve never let me know, no no no.
Youre always going too soon.
Im always left on my own.
Its ok, Ill understand.
Sometimes life can hold you down.

(I can see your face as clear, I can see your face as clear..)
