Songtext I got by in time The Jam

I got by in time

Saw a girl that I used to know
I was deep in thought at the time
To recognise the face at first
cause I was probably looking at mine
Well she was the only girl Ive ever loved
But my folks didnt dig her so much
I was young
This is serious
To me she was the world (she was my world now)
I thought Id never live without her,
But I got by in time
Well let me tell you now,
Saw a guy that I used to know
Man hed changed so much
I think it hurt him to say hello,
cause he hardly opened his mouth
Yeah well he was my best friend a few years ago
Truly inseperable
We were young
We were full of ideals
We were gonna pull this whole world
But something happened
I didnt know why
But thats the way that it goes.
I suppose,
What you say - what you do
Dont mean nothing, nothing at all
And all the bonds you make between ya
Can be broken any time you want now
Please tell me if my philosophys wrong
Ive got to know the truth
I dont mean to offend anyone but,
You know its something that I do, oh-
So nice to see you tonight,
And Im so glad that you came
Some of the people standing outside, say
Sure feel the same
Yeah my point is in a round about way
Given time hell always forget
cause the memories
That ... me on
To me everything (youre everything now)
And it always will be mine, yeah
And no one can take them away
