Lyrics

So long ago

Reflecting on a distant past

When we were young

Nostalgia for youth

Broke all the rules

Engaging in rebellious behavior

Just having fun

Emphasizing carefree enjoyment


Some of the things

Recalling specific actions

That we did do

Listing past activities

Would not be believed

Actions so extraordinary that they might be hard to believe

When we were through

Reflecting on the aftermath of those actions


So in the end

Summarizing the overall experience

Only the names remain

Highlighting the fading of memories

So Tim old friend

Addressing a friend named Tim

Let us reclaim

Expressing a desire to reclaim memories


Never hurt anyone

Asserting innocence and lack of harm caused

From what was done

Insisting on the benign nature of actions

Once it was begun

Noting the inevitability of consequences once started

You'd best be gone

Advising to move on from the past


So in the end

Reiterating the fading of memories

Only the names remain

Emphasizing the persistence of names over experiences

So Tim old friend

Addressing Tim again in the context of memory

Let us reclaim

Renewing the call to reclaim memories


Thirty years hence

Referring to a substantial time gap

Those times are past

Acknowledging the passage of time

None need to know

Suggesting the irrelevance of past actions

The tales that last

Indicating the enduring nature of stories


So in the end

Reiterating the persistence of names in memory

Only the names remain

Calling for the reclamation of names

So Tim old friend

Speaking directly to Tim about memories

Let us reclaim

Renewing the plea to reclaim memories
