Well, it's time I moved off
But it's been great just listening to you
And I might even see ya next time I'm passing through
You're right, there's so much going on
No one seems to want to know
So keep well, keep well old friend
And have another drink on me
Just ignore all the others
You got your memories
You got your memories
