Hey you there, hey you there
May I buy you a drink
And bore you with the story of when I was seventeen
I was a young soul with no control
No vision for my life
Never dreamed of family, children, nor a wife
It was a cold day, maybe a Sunday
When I felt the Earth stand still
Like living in a movie, it all seemed so unreal
And I won't forget that day
I'll never forget that place
And I won't forget that face
I finished half a cigarette
And flicked it to the sky
It almost hit an angel standing in a subway line
As I walked by, we locked eyes
And I've never been the same
I wish I had the courage then to ask her 'what's your name'
And I won't forget that day
I'll never forget that place
And I won't forget that day
I'll never forget that place
And I won't forget that face
And time goes on
Time goes on
Time goes on
And she remains, she remains,
She remains
I won't forget that day
I'll never forget that place
And I won't forget that day
I'll never forget that place
And I won't forget that face
And time goes on
Time goes on
Time goes on
And she remains, she remains,
She remains
