In good old times, remember my friend
E A C#m E B/D#
The moon was so bright and so close to us, sometimes
G#m C#m A B
We were still blind and deaf, what a bliss
E A C#m E B/D# Bsus4
Painting the world of our own, for our own eyes now
A E F#m C#m
Can we ever have what we had then, friendship unbreakable
B E A F#m Bsus4
Love means nothing to me, without blinking an eye
B F#m C#m B E
I'd fade, if so needed.. All those moments with you
A F#m G#sus4 G#
If I had you beside me
G#m C#m A B
One cloudy day we both lost the game
E A C#m E B/D#
We drifted so far and away
G#m C#m A B
Nothing is quite as cruel as a child

Can we ever have what we had then, friendship unbroken

Love means nothing to me, without blinking an eye

I'd fade, if so needed.. All those moments with you

If I had you beside me now

I was unable to cope with what you said
G#m A E F#
Sometimes we need to be cruel to be kind
G#m A E F#
Child that I was could not see the reason
G#m A E F#
Feelings I had were but sham and a lie?
Bm G D A G A Bm
I have never forgotten your smile, your eyes oh Shamandalie
G A D G
Time went by, many memories died
Em F# D A/C#
I'm writing this down to ease my pain
Bm G D A G A Bm
You saw us always clearer than me.. How we were never meant to be
G A D G
Love denied meant the friendship would die

Now I have seen the light.. These memories make me cry

Can we ever have what we had then, friendship unbroken
B E A F#m Bsus4
Love means nothing to me, without blinking an eye
B F#m C#m B E
I'd fade, if so needed.. All those moments with you
A F#m Bsus4 B F#m
See the world with my wide open eyes
C#m B E
Friendship got broken.. There's no other for me
A F#m Bsus4 B
Like the one of my childhood days
F#m C#m B E
Can you forgive me? Love's got better of me,
A F#m G#sus4 G#
On that day back in old times
G#m E/G# C#m D# D#m B C# D#7
