1973

SimonaYou're getting older

Your journey's beenEtched on your skin

SimonaWish I had known that

What seemed so strong has been and gone

[Chorus:]

I would call you up every Saturday night

And we both stayed out 'til the morning light

And we sang, "Here we go again"

And though time goes by

I will always be

In a club with you

In 1973 Singing "Here we go again"

Simona Wish I was sober

So I could see clearly now the rain has gone

SimonaI guess it's over

My memory plays our tune

The same old song

[Chorus x3]

And though time goes by

I will always be

In a club with you

In 1973
