Long time since I've seen you smile 
But when I close my eyes I remember (I remember), mmm 
You were no more than a child 
But then so was I, young and tender. 

Time carries on 
I guess it always will 
Deep inside my heart 
Time stands still. 

Stay for a while 
Well, it's good to see your smile 
And I love the company 
Stay for a while 
And remember the days gone by 
For a moment it can seem 
Just the way it used to be. 

Snowfalls, phone calls, broken hearts 
Clear summer days, warm and lazy, yea 
Long walks, long talks after dark 
We felt we'd never forget 
Now it's easy. 

Time takes its toll 
And time alters our youth 
It would be nice to spend some 
Time with you. 

Oh, stay for a while 
Well, it's good to see your smile 
And I love the company 
(Oh) Stay for a while 
And remember the days gone by 
For a moment it can seem 
Just the way it used to be. (repeat and end)
