Well i guess it's kinda funny how
I loved you so way back when.
You say i wouldn't know you now,
Well i didn't even know you then.
We take (we take)
A lot (a lot)
And no one here can stop
That train (that train)
Before (before)
It gets to where it's goin'.
And aaaahhh
So i guess it's kinda funny how
I loved you so way back when.
You say i wouldn't know you now,
Well i didn't even know you then
I heard (i heard)
About (about)
The company you're keeping
And from (and from)
Someone (someone)
Who didn't have much interest
In keeping us apart.
So i guess it's kinda funny how
I loved you so way back when.
You say i wouldn't know you now,
Well i didn't even know you then
And so i go out friday night and talk to anyone i can.
If they can see me they can hear me run my mouth.
I tell them all i'd love to see you once again
Or maybe just run into you hanging out,
Hanging out.
You know (you know)
I lie (i lie)
So it comes as no surprise
When i (admit)
That i (that i)
Don't really want to reunite.
Well i guess it's kinda funny how
I loved you so way back when.
You say i wouldn't know you now,
Well i didn't even know you then.
So i guess it's kinda funny how
I loved you so way back when.
You say i wouldn't know you now,
Well, i didn't even know you then.
No, i didn't even know you then.
No, i didn't even know you then.
