It all started on your 21st birthday
Needed your friends, but you didn't need me
No, well, Oh no
I ask you how you're doin'. And you say just fine
You and I both know that's just a lie
Oh yeah, Well, Oh Yeah

Well, you started hangin' out with a different crowd
And you decided that you didn't want me around
And now you seem like a totally different person to me

Yeah, on your 21st birthday
You started livin' life your way
Yeah, on your 21st birthday

Friends for so long, for most of our lives
I wish that we could go back before that time
Oh yeah, Well, Oh Yeah
We lived our lives and went separate ways
After so long what a price to pay
Oh yeah, Well, Oh Yeah

Well, you started hangin' out with a different crowd
And you decided that you didn't want me around
And now you seem like a totally different person to me

Yeah, on your 21st birthday
You started livin' life your way
You said goodbye to me
And now I don't know what type of friends
That you and I will ever be

It hasn't been so long since I wrote you this song
And now my fears are comin' true
You see your new friends each day
They come and take you away
And now I'm left here missin' you, Yeah

Yeah, on your 21st birthday
You started livin' life your way
You said goodbye to me
And now I don't know what type of friends
That you and I will ever be
