  • What's that you say, I knew you when?
    You don't look too much like my friend
    Those history books, filled up with crooks
    Stories I don't want to read again

    I've tried to live
    One thousand years from here

    When I think of it now
    It just brings me down when I think of you now
    And when I think of it now
    It just brings me down when I think of you now

    I'm keeping time, one day goes by
    I try to live 'til the next one
    But these history books, full of haunted looks
    From people I don't want to see again

    'Cause I've learned to live
    But they try to hold me here

    When I think of it now
    It just brings me down when I think of it now
    And when I think of it now
    It just brings me down when I think of you now

    You just remind me of the nights of smoke and dirty jokes
    Darkened rooms with lonely ghosts
    And they were beautiful some time ago
    But time keeps rollin' us on

    When I think of it now
    It just brings me down when I think of you now
    And when I think of you now
    It just brings me down when I think of you now

    You just remind me of the nights of smoke and dirty jokes
    Darkened rooms with lonely ghosts
    And they were beautiful some time ago
    But time keeps rollin' us on

    Rollin' us on
    Rollin' us on
    Rollin' us on
    Rollin' us on
    Rollin' us on
    Rollin' us on Writer/s: Brian Michael Fallon
