Old friend, please stop on by

I've been waiting here to tell you all my life

Where have you been?

When it starts to rain

It's been way too long since I last heard your name

Now the waves just keep crashing

And there's not much I can do

And the tides just keep rolling back to you

So hold on to your hats this story gets loud

and fun, and sad

And ladies and gentlemen

we'll be back with a happier ending

Oh hold on

it's not that bad it's just the best dream I ever had

We're back in the car, but now I'm mad because it's ending

But wouldn't that be something

Oh don't lie, I know you see it too

We're dancing like we're strangers in your room

And I could describe it

Say that things happen if they're due

But you never understand that 'til it's true

Now the waves just keep crashing

And there's not much I can do

And the tides just keep rolling back to you

So hold on to your hats this story gets loud

and fun, and sad

And ladies and gentlemen

we'll be back with a happier ending

Oh hold on

it's not that bad it's just the best dream I ever had

We're back in the car, but now I'm mad because it's ending

But wouldn't that be something

Oh

Wouldn't that be something

Oh

Oh

Oh

So hold on, here's your hat

I hope my story made you laugh

And I told you I'd be back with a better ending

So hold on, it's not that bad

I wrote it down, this dream I had

And now I'm mad because it's ending

Wouldn't that be something
