Intro: 

He's back our old dear friend 

The crack of her whip won't be heard again 

And so now we'll sing (sing) 

To him and what he has been through 



(Chorus:)

Back to where it all began 

Back to where we used to stand 

Back to the boys the benders all again 

Back to drinking with his friends 

Back to forgetting to ring them back 

Back to laughing all about that 

Back to taking your pride right off her shelf 

Back to doing it yourself 



When we're together we're still now still alone 

Your woman is who you're with calling you on the phone 

Excuses broad excuses you use to ease your mind 

It didn't take long no it didn't take long to steal your mind 



I remember when in 82 when we were half of ten 

You didn't care about the pair you were fair now do it again 

And now you're caught and now your mind is all forgot 

She's packed your bags you're on the boat I'm watching from the dock 



(Chorus)



As the rope gets tighter as the rope takes another pull 

I see your breath get shorter no more breath and now you fall 

Long since long since the decision has been yours 

It makes no sense the sense you make now who's it for 



I know what you wanna be I know what you have to be 

I know that when you chose this world your mind your time it can't be free 

But I know yu feel the sting and I know just one more thing 

Well now you're back and it's a fact so let's get up get up and sing. . . 



(Chorus)
