Sax and everyone else in here

 Well I see ya

 Holdin' hands with your lover

 And you're makin' plans with each other

 It looks real good on you

 Well don't worry

 I didn't come to make things strange

 'Cause there's a reason that things change

 There's nothin' we can do!

 And it's been five long years

 Since I've seen your lovely eyes

You girls have grown

 She sees right through my thin disguise

You know I still love you

You knew I'd never change

 And it's been five long years and I love you

When you see me

Do you remember the times when we traveled

South of the borderline when love was young

Time was on our side

We danced

In the Rio Grande

And we listened to all the Mexican bands

Singin' songs of love

When our hearts were young, yeah

And it's been five long years

Since I've seen your lovely eyes

The girls have grown

She sees right through my thin disguise

You know I still love you

You knew I'd never change

And it's been five long years and I love you

Just the same
