A smile to break the ice, can I know your name

If you say no and it's touch and go

nothing would have been the same



Oh was it star-dust or just lust

Well one touch is just not enough

Faces change but somewhere in the passing crowd

The face you just can't live without



Nothing's changed but nothing seems the same

Remembering a thousand things I meant to say

The past's a sea of boys and girls

Who disappeared without a word

All friends of mine who had their time, then drifted away



Delights, dizzy heights, will you change your name?

If you say no and it's touch and go

Nothing's going to seem the same

Oh but the stars are out, they're shining down

They whisper through the passing clouds

Don't be scared the wind will come, blow you home

Don't be afraid, 'cos you're not alone



Nothing's changed but nothing seems the same

Remembering a thousand things I meant to say

The past's a sea of boys and girls

Who disappeared without a word

All friends of mine who had their time, then drifted away



Tell it to me one more time

Oh 'cos I'll never get to feel the same way, tonight

I'll remember every line, [every line]

I'll never get to hear the same words, not twice



Nothing's changed but nothing seems the same

Remembering a thousand things I meant to say

The past's a sea of boys and girls

Who disappeared without a word

All friends of mine who had their time, then drifted away



Remember all the Mersey skies

On rainy streets, I spent the night

With friends of mine who had their time then drifted away
