So let me get this straight
                        
Say now you loved me all along
()               
What made you hesitate
                              
to tell me with words what you really feel?

(Finger Pick)
            
I can see it in your eyes
     
you mean all of what you say
                        
I remember so long ago, see I felt that same way

(Strum)
                                  
Now we both have separate lives and lovers (and lovers)
            
Insignificantly enough
    A - (Strum Once)
we both have significant others

(Strum B x 3  then Strum A)

Only time will tell

(Strum B x 3 then Strum A)

Time will turn and tell

( B x 3 )


We are who we were when
                                                    
Could have been lovers but at least you're still my day late friend
                        
we are who, we are who we were when
()
Who knew what we know now
                                                  
Could have been more but at least you're still my day late friend
                       
We are who, we are who we were when

()
But thoughts they change
    
and times they rearrange
                      
I don't know who you are anymore
                    
Loves come and go and this I know
                  
I'm not who you recall anymore


     
And I must confess
       
you're so much more than I remember
                   
Can't help but entertain
                 ( x 2) ( x 2) ( x 2)( x 2)( x 3) 
the thoughts, thoughts of us together



We are who we were when
                                                    
Could have been lovers but at least you're still my day late friend
                        
we are who, we are who we were when
()
Who knew what we know now
                                                  
Could have been more but at least you're still my day late friend
                            
We are who, we are who we were when

(At this part, they climb down the neck, and then back up)

( x 16)( x 16)( x 16)(Strum    few times, let ring, then )

(Softly)
                
So let me get this straight
           
All these years
                                  
and you were no where to be found
()                      
And now you want me for your own

But you're a day late
        A - (Let Ring)
and my love, she's still renowned



We are who we were when
                                                    
Could have been lovers but at least you're still my day late friend
                        
we are who, we are who we were when
()
Who knew what we know now
                                                  
Could have been more but at least you're still my day late friend
                         
We are who, we are who we were when


We are who we were when
                                                    
Could have been lovers but at least you're still my day late friend
                        
we are who, we are who we were when
()
Who knew what we know now
                                                  
Could have been more but at least you're still my day late friend
                        
We are who, we are who we were when (Resolve)
