Said you don't like it, said you don't need it
Promised everything short of the world
Said you don't love me, just like to shove me
Promised everything short of the world
On and on and on we go

Remember, all those times, fit like rhymes, all this life
Long ago, New York snow, like a globe, long ago
Cupid's bow, what a show, what a glow, didn't know
Soft hello, long ago	

Call me your baby, stop saying maybe
Just give everything, short of the world
Drown me in kisses, your hits and misses
Just give everything short of the world
On and on and on we go
On and on and on we go

Remember, all those times, brand new wine, all this life
Understand, I'm your man, not your plan, understand
It's my hand, not a brand, I'm a fan, yes we can
We're a band, understand

Our last engagement, house near the pavement
We gave everything short of the world
Love is soft labor no time to savor
We gave everything short of the world
On and on and on we go
On and on and on we go

Remember, all those times, eyes would shine, all this life
Memories, thick as thieves, little seeds, memories
One lady, haunting me, can't you see, I can't breathe
Set me free memories

On and on and on we go
On and on and on we go
