It Really Would Be Nice

You were born
Two streets from here
I shared my first
Cigarette with you
We went together
Everywhere
There was nothing
We wouldn't do

It really would be nice
To see you again
I know it ended bad
Some things you just can't change
It would be nice to see you again

Did you settle down?
Did you get that proper job
And make your parents proud?
Are you still a dreamer?
Do you have a wife?
Are you happy together?
Perhaps you've got a son
Maybe a daughter

It really would be nice
To meet them all
Now the past has gone
Perhaps we'll get along
It would be nice to see you again

Did I never call you?
Did you ever call me?
I don't know
It seems like years

It really would be nice
To see you again
I know it ended bad
Some things you just can't change
It would be nice to see you again
