Please don't get me wrong See I forgive you in a song We'll call The Likely Lads But if it's left to you I know exactly what you'd do With all the dreams we had Just blood runs thicker, oh We're thick as thieves, you know If that's important to you It's important to me I tried to make you see But you don't want to know! If you pipe all summer long Then get forgiven in a song Well that's a touch, my lad They sold the rights to all the wrongs And when they knew you'd give me songs Welcome back, I said The blood runs thicker, oh We're thick as thieves, you know If it's important to you It's important to me I tried to make you see But you don't want to know Oh what became of the likely lads? What became of the dreams we had? What became of forever? Oh what became of forever Though, we'll never know Please don't get me wrong See I forgive you in a song We call The Likely Lads We all bought the ones We taught 'em all we wrote the songs That's filled with dreams we have But blood runs thicker oh We're thick as thieves, you know If it's important to you It's important to me I tried to make you see But you don't want to know Oh what became of the likely lads What became of the dreams we had? What became of forever? What became of forever? We'll never know
