I remember that night in the London streets
In the fog and the rain I had fallen to my knees
You helped me back up when I couldn't even stand
Saying keep your head held high if you wanna be a man
I remember that day just like yesterday
And there's nothing that I have that I wouldn't give away
In exchange for one chance just to see you again
I'd take my own life for you my friend
Tonight we're gonna sing a song for our fallen friends
What I wouldn't give to see your face again
Tonight we're gonna drink them down in remembrance
Of the best of times the worst of times
For those whose lives are now past tense
I remember how it felt when the feeling first hit
Got the news that you were gone and I couldn't deal with it
I started thinking about some things and I knew I'd never find
Anything as valuable as your life was to mine
Now that you're gone I can't help but ask
Is there anything I could give to get you back
Left all alone without you by my side
You're gone but not forgotten in my heart tonight
Tonight we're gonna sing a song for our fallen friends
What I wouldn't give to see your face again
Tonight we're gonna drink them down in remembrance
Of the best of times the worst of times
For those whose lives are now past tense
When your heroes become mortal and you've seen them to the grave
A certain sense of emptiness comes coursing through your veins
Now they live through remembrance still with us today
It's up to us here and now to honor their memory
Tonight we're gonna sing a song for our fallen friends
What I wouldn't give to see your face again
Tonight we're gonna drink them down in remembrance
Of the best of times the worst of times
For those whose lives are now past tense
