[Verse 1]
Hey, can I have a slice of time?
I know you live your life and I live mine
What happened to us getting drunk and
Staying up 'til ten past five?
[Verse 2]
Wow, look at us now all grown up
I know we're going through some grown up stuff
Do you own that VHS recorder
Or did the tapes get lost?
[Chorus]
What a shame we all now have our own apartments
And what a shame that some of us now live abroad
And what a shame I didn't realize what I had until it left
I guess some friends will never come back
I guess some friends will stay in my past
[Verse 3]
Hey, distances they creep right in
The game of time is something no one wins
I've always wondered what would happen
Now I'm almost four feet in
[Chorus]
What a shame I missed the ten year anniversary
And what a shame that some of us can't find the one
Oh, what a shame I didn't realize what I had until it left
I guess some friends will never come back
I guess some friends will stay in my past
