[Intro – warm bass, soft electric piano, gentle groove] We were young, we had no money, but we owned the Friday night. Two old jackets, one old Chevy, and the whole world felt all right. We said nothing could divide us, nothing ever could go wrong. Funny how the years can find us, and somehow move us on. [Verse 1] I heard your voice across the room, through the laughter and the smoke. For a second we were twenty, laughing at the same old joke. There were lines around your eyes now, there was silver in your hair. But the friend I knew so long ago was standing right back there. [Pre-Chorus] We don't need to count the years, we don't need to hide the scars. Every road that brought us here only shows us who we are. [Chorus] Give me one more night to remember, one more song from long ago. Raise your glass to every summer, every place we used to go. We lost some dreams along the highway, found some better ones instead. Give me one more night to remember, before another year has fled. [Verse 2] You told me about your children, I told you about my life. About the chances we both wasted, about the things we got right. We spoke about the ones who left us, and the names we still recall. Funny how the smallest memories can mean the most of all. [Pre-Chorus] Time keeps moving like a river, never asking us to stay. But some things live forever, though the years may roll away. [Chorus] Give me one more night to remember, one more song from long ago. Raise your glass to every summer, every place we used to go. We lost some dreams along the highway, found some better ones instead. Give me one more night to remember, before another year has fled. [Bridge – instruments pull back, soulful vocal] Maybe we weren't born for glory, maybe fortune passed us by. But we filled a thousand stories between hello and goodbye. And if tomorrow takes us farther down two different roads again, I'll remember this old evening, and I'll always call you friend. [Final Chorus – fuller backing vocals] Give me one more night to remember, let the old songs play once more. For the boys we were together, and the men who crossed that door. No, we can't turn back the hours, and I wouldn't if I could. Give me one more night to remember— Yeah, tonight… life feels good. [Outro – bass groove, soft backing vocals] One more night… one more song… old friend, it's been too long.
