As I sit in this smoky room,
The night about to end,
I pass my time with strangers,
but this bottle's my only friend.
Remember when we used to park
On Butler Street out in the dark,
Remember when we lost the keys
and you lost more than that in my backseat. Believe it.
Remember when we used to talk
about busting out - we'd break their hearts
Together forever.
Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
You and me and my old friends
Hoping it would never end
say goodbye, never say goodbye,
holdin' on - we got to try
holdin' on to never say goodbye.
Remember days of skipping school,
racing cars and being cool,
with a six pack and the radio,
we didn't need no place to go.
Remember at the prom that night,
you and me we had a fight,
but the band they played our favorite song
and I held you in my arms so strong.
We danced so close, we danced so slow,
and I swore I'd never let you go
Together forever.
Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
You and me and my old friends
Hoping it would never end
say goodbye, never say goodbye,
holdin' on - we got to try
holdin' on to never say goodbye.
Oh, I guess you'd say we used to talk
About busting out we'd break their hearts
Together forever.
Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
You and me and my old friends
Hoping it would never end
say goodbye, never say goodbye,
holdin' on - we got to try
holdin' on to never say good byeey-ey-eye.
