For Ol' Times Sake

Before you go walk out on me Take a look around tell me what you see Here I stand like an open book Is there something here you might have overlooked 'Cause it would be a shame if you should leave And find that freedom ain't what you thought it would be The years we had were not all bad In fact I know the good outweighed the bad Now you say that you've grown tired You want to be by yourself a while It would be a shame if you should go And find that freedom was a long time ago I know that you can't stand the chains that bind you They just keep on drivin' us apart You could go where I could never find you But could you go far enough to get away from your heart So one more time, for ol' times sake Come and lay your head upon my chest Please don't throw this moment away We can forget the bad and take the best If you don't have nothing left to say Let me hold you one more time for ol' times sake If you don't have nothing left to say Let me hold you one more time for ol' times sake --- For Ol' Times Sake - Tony Joe White
