How do you feel
I heard that you're _,
That you found a girl and you're married now,
I heard that your dreams _,
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you,
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to or hide from the light,
Match one half with the other
I hate to turn up I couldn't fight it,
But I couldn't stay away, And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over,
I had hoped you'd see my face, out of the blue uninvited,
Put the sentences in the right order
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead,"
Don't forget me, I begged, I remember you said,
Never mind, I'll find someone like you,
Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead, yeah,

You know how the time flies,
Only yesterday was the time of our lives,
We were born and raised in a summer haze,
Bound by the surprise of our glory days,
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it,
I had hoped you'd see my face,
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over,
Never mind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I begged, I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead,"
Underline the rhyming words in this stanza
Nothing compares, No worries or cares,
Regrets and mistakes, they're memories made,
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?
Never mind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you,
Don't forget me, I begged, I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead,"
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead."
