[Verse 1] It’s gotten late and now I want to be alone All of our friends were here; they all have gone home And here I sit on the front porch Watching the drunks stumble forth into the night [Verse 2] You gave me a heart attack; I did not see you there I thought you had disappeared so early away from here And this is the chance I never got to make a move But we just talk about [Chorus] The people we have met in the last 5 years And will remember them in ten more? [Verse 3] (like the first 2 lines of the earlier verses) I let you bum a smoke; you quit this winter past I’ve tried twice before but like this it just will not last [Outro]         (2x)
