Intro (x2) verse 1 When we were young, we got too old ( Never did what we were told ( I can have and I can hold ( But I can't buy what I just sold Smile, won't you, won't you smile? Haven't seen it for a while ( Stay, won't you, won't you stay? I don't mean that that way verse 2 We had fun, so time went fast You don't hop on; it goes right past The water's high; it's overcast You're a rotten egg if you're in last Chorus Bridge Love, tell me that I'm wrong And I'll leave you with this song But please do come along And bring your smile with you Instrumental (x2) verse 3 So raise a glass to all that's good To everything that we withstood And there'll be walls, but I think we could knock 'em down, and for firewood Chorus (x2) I don't mean that that way I don't mean that that way I don't mean that that way
