1
Yesterday arrived too quickly
2
Caught me right off guard
3
My defence moved in too slowly
4
Missed it by a yard
5
I'd just settled down
6
With a bottle of gin
7
So I moved on to whiskey
8
And it hit me again
9
Memories were raining punches
10
Down on my head
11
Knocked me into the past so quickly
12
They almost raised the dead
13
So I drank some more booze
14
And it helped me to sleep
15
Where I dreamed of my youth
16
And the secrets I keep
17
Oh history is a friend of mine
18
She comes over to my place
19
And we have a good time
20
But the memories
21
She sometimes brings with her
22
Get out of line
23
They're out of line
24
Show me things I don't want to see
25
(Wanna see, wanna see, wanne see)
26
Remind me of who I thought I was gonna be
27
(Ganna be, gonna be, gonna be)
28
Take me places I used to go
29
(Used to go, used to go)
30
A long long time ago
31
When I woke I remembered nothing
32
Suppose that's just as well
33
And although my head was aching
34
I could hear a bell
35
So I put on some clothes
36
And I reached my front door
37
When I pulled it wide open
38
She joined me once more
39
Oh history is a friend of mine
40
She comes over to my place
41
And we have a good time
42
But the memories
43
She sometimes brings with her
44
Get out of line
45
They're out of line
46
Show me things I don't want to see
47
(Wanna see, wanna see, wanna see)
48
Remind me of who I thought I was gonna be
49
(Ganna be, gonna be, gonna be)
50
Take me places I used to go
51
(Used to go, used to go)
52
A long long time ago
53
A long long time ago
