O.k. set 'em up again, an' let's to absent friends
The ones you know you'll never see any more.
Let's reminisce the past, put another in that glass
Cos the future holds no mem'ries 'til it's gone.
He was waiting for the train
Somehow things just ain't the same.
When you've signed your name
It all should be above board.
But the kids can't understand
All they know is it's tearin'm apart.
Every way they face or turn
It's always wrong.
O.k. set 'em up again, an' let's drink to absent friends
The ones you know you'll never see anymore.
Let's reminisce the past, put another in that glass
Cos the future holds no mem'ries 'til it's gone.
Old war heroes, or sick people
Who never had a chance.
Kings or queen's, tramps or thieves
It don't matter no how.
Somewhere around the bend
Everybody's got a friend.
It's just that some folk never find 'em
No matter how hard they try.
O.k. set 'em up again, an' let's drink to absent friends
The ones you know you'll never see anymore.
Let's reminisce the past, put another in that glass
Cos the future holds no mem'ries 'til it's gone.
