lyrics

Verse 1
We've known this town, we've know each other
Like the old crowds, we knew when we were younger
But it's changed now, to find each other
In an old town, with new faces for a summer
In this silly little place we call home
Not much happens but our friendship has grown
Like a seed that was planted when we just knew a name
We're still friends like before, but it's just nothing the same

Chorus
I'll never have friends like these again
I'll never have friends like these again
I'll see all these new faces, and some that might stick
But none will quite know me in the way that you did
I'll never have friends like these again
I'll never have friends like these again
In the time that will pass, when all the memories will fade
Just tell me that someday it'll all be the same

Verse 2
Its been months now without each other
And its cold out, with no warmth left from the summer
And its time now to try discover
Just to see how I can be myself with others
But I'll never find what it was before
That made me feel special when our friendship was raw
To be able to talk with such truth in my words
And to trust you to know that I'd always be heard

Chorus
I'll never have friends like these again
I'll never have friends like these again
I'll see all these new faces, and some that might stick
But none will quite know me in the way that you did
I'll never have friends like these again
I'll never have friends like these again
In the time that will pass, when all the memories will fade
Just tell me that someday it'll all be the same

Outro
Old town, new faces
Old crowd, new places
