The world was so much bigger when we were young
So much to explore
So much time we had
I still remember making forts in your basement
You said we'd play with them next time I came back
Little did we know that it would take five years
This world was so lonely when you weren't here
One thing I've learned is that it's true what they say
That time goes by faster and faster every single day
And it's a small world, isn't it?
'Cause all of the times that we were falling out
Life led you back into mine, I knew we'd be alright somehow
'Cause it's a small world, isn't it?
These memories they never seem to end
I'm so glad I can still call you a friend
Going to a grad party and I hear you'll be there
I get kinda scared
I don't know what I'll say
But I found a chair next to you and so we talk for a while
I found you're still the same
And nothing has changed
I'm so glad that we got to meet up again
But the world was so much bigger last time we were friends
One thing I've learned is that it's true what they say
That time goes by faster and faster every single day
And it's a small world, isn't it?
'Cause all of the times that we were falling out
Life led you back into mine, I knew we'd be alright somehow
'Cause it's a small world, isn't it?
These memories they never seem to end
I'm so glad I can still call you my friend
Day after New Year's and we're meeting up again
We've grown up a lot
But we're still kids at heart
Playing all the games that we love from our childhood
We're feeling young again
It doesn't feel too far
Every person that you meet has their own timeline
Their friends and family
Their memories and heartbreaks
Every path that you cross you have a choice to make
Who will hear your goodbye
And who will you tell to stay?
I'm so glad that our lives keep crossing paths
Even through all the storms and the aftermaths
These memories they never seem to end
I'm so glad I can still call you my friend
I will tell my children our story
So keep these pictures please don't forget me
This world was so lonely when you weren't here
This world was so lonely when you weren't here
One thing I've learned is that it's true what they say
That time goes by faster and faster every single day
And it's a small world, isn't it?
'Cause all of the times that we were falling out
Life led you back into mine, I knew we'd be alright somehow
'Cause it's a small world, isn't it?
These memories they never seem to end
I'm so glad I can still call you my friend
I will tell my children our story
So keep these pictures please don't forget me
Every day with you is a memory
So keep these pictures please don't forget me
This world was so lonely when you weren't here
This world was so lonely when you weren't here
This world was so lonely when you weren't here
This world was so lonely when you weren't here...
