[00:00.00]Same Old Lang Syne - Backstreet Boys
[00:18.74]Met my old lover in the grocery store
[00:23.21]The snow was falling christmas eve
[00:27.74]I stole behind her in the frozen foods
[00:31.64]And I touched her on the sleeve
[00:36.96]She didn't recognize the face at first
[00:41.40]But then her eyes flew open wide
[00:46.03]She went to hug me and she spilled her purse
[00:49.91]And we laughed until we cried
[01:13.64]We took her groceries to the checkout stand
[01:17.95]The food was totaled up and bagged
[01:22.75]We stood there lost in our embarrassment
[01:26.38]As the conversation dragged
[01:31.79]Went to have ourselves a drink or two
[01:36.32]But couldn't find an open bar
[01:40.90]We bought a six pack at the liquor store
[01:44.83]And we drank it in her car
[01:50.87]We drank a toast to innocence
[01:53.90]We drank a toast to now
[01:59.46]And tried to reach beyond the emptiness
[02:03.03]But neither one knew how
[02:08.42]She said she'd married her an architect
[02:12.93]Who kept her warm and safe and dry
[02:17.51]She would have liked to say she loved the man
[02:21.15]But she didn't like to lie
[02:26.83]I said the years had been a friend to her
[02:31.26]And that her eyes were still as blue
[02:35.82]But in those eyes I wasn't sure if I
[02:39.56]Saw doubt or gratitude
[02:44.94]She said she saw me in the record stores
[02:49.49]And that I must be doing well
[02:54.15]I said the audience was heavenly
[02:57.93]But the traveling was hell
[03:03.88]We drank a toast to innocence
[03:07.20]We drank a toast to now
[03:12.55]And tried to reach beyond the emptiness
[03:16.28]And neither one knew how
[03:22.13]We drank a toast to innocence
[03:25.27]We drank a toast to time
[03:31.34]Reliving in our eloquence
