There's something I've gotta tell you

One thing before you go

I've loved you since the day we met

All those years ago

Something about your voice

Something in your eyes

Has always walked beside me

Has always lived inside

Olden days keep calling, whispering in my ear

Seems like only yesterday you and I were drinking beer

And everything was clear

Now there's something in your voice

And tears in your eyes

Guess I better make us laugh

Or else we're going to cry

We might not always be together

But we'll never say goodbye

Time speeds up as we slow down

Though the ride has been a thrill

Now memories are all we have, and all we ever will

There's something I've gotta tell you

One thing before you go

I've loved you since the day we met

All those years ago
