A long time ago
When our lives were just a show
You were high and I was down below
I always thought we'd stay
Just exactly quite that way
But today it isn't like that at all

Where did we go
After we learned all we know?
We turned around and went our separate ways
But now we're here again
We can write a different end
So my friend will you just answer me true?

When you jump would you let me follow you down?
We can fly away from this lonely town
There ain't no use in us hanging 'round
If you'd only let me follow you down

The nights drove me mad
Til I found out what I had
Lazing on a sunday afternoon
Life used to stink
Now I'm old enough to drink
So just let me drown my worries away
I'll still pretend
That we once were more than friends
I could live forever in your past
They went off to pick a fight
And I tried to be polite
But you're the one who kept me in line

When you jump would you let me follow you down?
We can fly away from this lonely town
There ain't no use in us hanging 'round
If you'd only let me follow you down
