When we were young we used to sing

And we could feel the harmony

You'd sit there waiting in the wings

How long have you been waitin' to let your light shine?



Many years have gone since then

Seen us go our different ways

But now we sit here once again

Tonight we're gonna sing out, tonight our light will shine.



This is the time and place

To bring out our memories

It's written on every face

I can see it in you, you can see it in me.



In all the years we had

As part of a family tree

We knew the good and bad

I can see it in you, you can see it in me.



I know it's left its mark on you

I see the same things in myself

You know there's nothin' we can't do

We've been a long time waitin', but some things never die.



It's time to leave all that behind

It's time to lay that ghost to rest

We can't deny the ties that bind

Tonight we're gonna sing out, tonight our light will shine.



This is the time and place

To bring out our memories

It's written on every face

I can see it in you, you can see it in me.



In all the years we had (when we were young we used to sing)

As part of a family tree (we could feel the harmony)

We knew the good and bad

I can see it in you, you can see it in me.



When we were young we used to sing...

  • Get It Right Next Time
    "Get It Right Next Time
    Gerry Rafferty
    Out on the street I was talkin' to a man
    He said "there's so much of this life of mine that I don't understand"..."
  • Baker Street
    "Winding your way down on Baker Street
    Light in your head and dead on your feet
    Well another crazy day
    You drink the night away..."
  • Moonlight And Gold
    "Moonlight and gold
    Midsummer magic when the night turns to day
    And songbirds greet the dawn
    You lie awake..."
  • Stuck In The Middle With You
    "Well I don't know why I came here tonight
    I got the feeling that something ain't right
    I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
    And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs..."
  • Night Owl
    "Night comes down and finds you alone
    In a space and time of your own
    Lost in dreams in a world full of shadows
    Down the street the neon light shines..."
  • Waiting for the Day
    "Well here I am, back in town
    Just as the night is comin' down
    Warm wind blowin' through the trees
    I watch them swing, I watch them sway..."
  • Right Down the Line
    "You know I need your love, You got that hold over me
    Long as I got your love, You know that I'll never leave
    When I wanted you to share my life, I had no doubt in my mind
    And it's been you, woman, right down the line..."
  • Bring It All Home
    "I was lost on an endless sea
    Going down, going down, going down on an endless sea
    Sail with the wind, you weather the storm
    You bring it all home, bring it all home, you bring it all home...."
