Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I see you there

Your long black hair

Your eyes just stare

Your mind is turning

[Verse 2]

You know I'll laugh

I won't take it back

I've seen your eyes

I know what you're thinking

[Verse 3]

And one by one

We'll shoot our guns

We'll have fun

Don't ever doubt it

[Verse 4]

And when I say

"Fare thee well

My only friend"

Oh, how the days go

Oh, how the days go

[Verse 5]

Your setting sun

Your broken drum

Your little drugs

I'll never forget you

I'll never forget you

I'll never forget you
