I look around I know that everyone in here
Has felt the warmth of dawson
I look around and I know that we'll be cold
And full of disappointment
When he goes away
It so hard just to say goodbye if I could open up I
Think I just might cry
Cos im losing my best-friend
Feels like im losing both my arms
I don't want you to go but I know you have too

If you're losing sleep in aberdeen
I'm only a phone call away
You'll find comfort in the memories that ill relay
Those were the days
Those were the days
We'll say those were the days
Those were the days we'll say those were the days

Now listen carefully
I need you to live by these words
Let it circulate through you're veins
Head up chest out now
And after all this important guy
I think its finally my turn to give you some important advice
Now you're not scared
But you will be when you're lonely
And ill be there in a blink of a light any time
Of the night when you need some conversation
Im you're main man
And you know you can always count on me
To be awake at 3 and ill probably be thinking
About the same old shit that you see
And if it wasn't for this gentle bear I don't think id be here
Can barely speak through tears
Cos when im low who can lift me oh
I don't know
Upon a guess I say hes got a gift
Cos he can always shift find and make it swift
Turn a heart ache in to milkshake
Turn a bad taste in to a sweet taste
That's why I don't want you to go but I know you have too

If you're losing sleep in aberdeen
Im only a phone call away
You'll find comfort in the memories that ill relay
Those were the days
Those were the days we'll say
Those were the day
Those were the days we'll say
Those were the days

Even though you've got a million best friends
I don't want the label
I just want your presence
And these words on my wrist will apply till the end,
I see you as a brother just as much as a best friend
So I will fight the deeper urge to say come home
Cos I know you have to go
And when you cross those scottish boarders
Mark my words they'll be locking up their daughters
And they'll all be singing
They'll all be singing
Oh oh oh my god oh oh its michael dawson x 12

If you're losing sleep in aberdeen
Im only a phone call away y
Ou'll find comfort in the memories that ill relay
Those were the days
Those were the days we'll say
Those were the days
Those were the days we'll say
Those were the days
Those were the days we'll say
Those were the days
