They say no on should call on you

Unless she's your permission to

But me, I just came anyway

I couldn't care less what you say

'Cause I know you from long before

You hid behind a stained glass door

And walked around

And looked your old friends up and down



But anyway, I thought I'd come give you a look

At where you're from and let you know

I still recall what a child you are underneath it all



Chorus:

You remember me the funny way I cry

The funny way I sit there when someone says goodbye

The funny way I wind up lost when someone sets me free

Why sure, you remember me



Well, I won't take up your whole day

I've said about all I have to say

I guess that I'll be moving on

I know you'll be glad to see me gone

Tonight is our last night in town

So don't worry bout me hangin' round

Tomorrow night it's Calgary

And you'll be good and rid of me



Repeat chorus twice
