Lyrics

The Old You

Whatever happened to the old you
He was someone that I once knew
Cracked a joke and had a smile too
Before all of the darkness
With a handful of naive dreams
Never realised torn at the seams
Now can never be as had been
As it fades to a memory

If I saw that man then I'd shake his hand
He is true to be but can't understand

Did some loving in the springtime
Walked down boulevards so sublime
Glided on the ice a thin line
Till the cracks would appear
Now is different with a dim light
All the days gone where he shone so bright
And the past does keep him up nights
Oh to mourn for the feeling

If I saw that man then I'd shake his hand
He is true to be but can't understand
If I saw that man then I'd shake his hand
He is true to be but can't understand
