A smile to break the ice, can I know your name If you say no and it's touch and go Nothing would have been the same Oh was it star-dust or just lust Well one touch is just not enough Faces change but somewhere in the passing crowd The face you just can't live without Nothing's changed but nothing seems the same Remembering a thousand things I meant to say The past's a sea of boys and girls Who disappeared without a word All friends of mine who had their time, then drifted away Delights, dizzy heights, will you change your name? If you say no and it's touch and go Nothing's going to seem the same Oh but the stars are out, they're shining down They whisper through the passing clouds Don't be scared the wind will come, blow you home Don't be afraid, 'cos you're not alone Nothing's changed but nothing seems the same Remembering a thousand things I meant to say The past's a sea of boys and girls Who disappeared without a word All friends of mine who had their time, then drifted away Tell it to me one more time Oh 'cos I'll never get to feel the same way, tonight I'll remember every line, [every line] I'll never get to hear the same words, not twice Nothing's changed but nothing seems the same Remembering a thousand things I meant to say The past's a sea of boys and girls Who disappeared without a word All friends of mine who had their time, then drifted away Remember all the Mersey skies On rainy streets, I spent the night With friends of mine who had their time then drifted away
