If you and I were sitting on the sand and I held your hand,
That's a feelin' well worth rememberin', AND...
I hope it won't be long, till we do it again. Will you be my friend?
Long after today I will often think about you.
I will Often Think About You If You Go...
When you and I were blowin' up balloons, in the afternoon
That's a feelin' I shall remember, AND...
I hope it won't be long, till we do it again. Will you be my friend?
Long after today I will often think about you.
I will Often Think About You If You Go...
If you and I were sitting on the sand and I held your hand,
That's a feelin' I shall remember, AND...
I hope it won't be long, till we do it again. Will you be my friend?
Long after today I will often think about you.
I will Often Think About You If You Go...
yeah, yeah, yeah
I will Often Think About You If You Go...
one more time: I will Often Think About You If You Go...
