I remember back when we first started We were all together chasing all our dreams Every day we seemed to get much better Our hopes and disappointments were all part of the scene We traveled 'round the world to spread our music And made more friends and fans each place we played Success just followed on, it seemed like magic So thank you all for giving me those days '75 we really made the breakthrough We were riding high then with records in the charts Toys and TV shows and all we wanted Seemed so many people all took us to their hearts And everything was new and so exciting Just one big adventure all the way We didn't know our story we were writing So thank you all for giving me those days Forty years on, where have they gone Thinking of days that don't seem so long Where are the boys that we were once then Fortunate friends, now forty years on Thinking of the times we shared between us The times we shared together changed all of our lives Memories that haunt now and forever And only we remember those heady days and nights Now we may be older but no wiser Time has made us go our different ways We won't forget who gave us all those chances So thank you all for giving me those days Forty years on, where have they gone Thinking of days that don't seem so long Where are the boys that we were once then Fortunate friends, now forty years on
