DROPKICK MURPHYS
"Memories Remain"
(Ken Casey / Matt Kelly)

Well we started shooting hoops
Now we're sipping Black and Tans
From the park to the pub
Was the course we ran
The times have changed, but friends remain
My heart and soul's with you
'Cause one thing's for sure, I always swore
I'd never turn my back on you-

[Bridge:]
Never turned our backs
Stuck together through and through
The times have changed
But my heart and soul's with you
Wouldn't turn your backs
And you didn't walk away
We'd never run
We'd stand as one
And this is what we'd say:

[Chorus:]
Times were tough
But the memories remain
Situations rough
But we overcame
Side by side, one for all
Together we grew
'Cause when it's said and done
I'll look back on friends like you

When I was down and I was out
And no one liked my games
One too many fights and bloody night
For which I was to blame
But you wouldn't turn your backs
And you didn't walk away
'Cause we'd never run We'd stand as one
Until this very day

[Bridge]

[Chorus 2x]
