GAll our friends are Dasking me a Gbout you
They Dsay I was a fool to let you Ggo

The Gway we used to be
And we'd be Done, again

If Cit was up to me
I'd turn the hands of time back to
The Gway we used to be
And we'd be Done, again
If Cit was up to me

And move the highest Gmountain, just to see
FYour loving Csmile, a Ggain
If Cit was up to me
I'd turn the hands of time back to
The Gway we used to be
And we'd be Done, again
If it was up to Gme
