When We're Old

Please, Don't forget me when we're old
Our stories were wild, but already told
We ran out, with a bucket full of chalk
We used to skip, but now I walk
Please, Don't forget when we were young
Smiles were wide and days were long
And they won't return, but we can remember it
In the grass, is where we'd sit

And it's been long
Since I had your call
But I remember it all

Please, keep me in your mind
Riding our bikes, didn't know what we'd find
We came home, with bruises on our knees
We fell when we climbed the trees

And it's been long
Since I had your call
But I remember it all

Please, let me know that you are fine
Do you still have the curls, like when you were nine
Or did you cut them, like you always said you'd do
When you brought scissors, and dared me to

And it's been long
Since I had your call
But I remember it all

And if I saw you, anywhere
Would I recognise you by your hair
And if I heard you, on the street
Would I recognise the way you speak

And it's been long
Since I had your call
But I remember it all
Yeah, I remember it all
