Lyrics

[Verse 1 : Carl] 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 [Pre-Chorus : Carl & Peter, Both] Cause 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 You don't wanna know But you don't want to know [Verse 2 : Peter] If you pipe all summer long Then get forgiven in a song Well that's a touch, my lad They sold my rights to all my wrongs And when they needed the new songs It's 'welcome back', how sad [Pre-Chorus : Carl & Peter, Both] But 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 You don't wanna know But you don't want to know [Chorus : Carl & Peter, Both] Oh, what became of the Likely Lads? What became of the dreams we had? Oh, what became of forever, though? Oh, what became of forever, though? We'll never know [Verse 3: Carl] But please don't get me wrong See I forgive you in a song We call the Likely Lads We all bought the ones We told the world, we wrote the songs That's filled with dreams we have [Pre-Chorus : Carl & Peter, Both] 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 You don't wanna know But you don't want to know [Chorus : Carl & Peter, Both] Oh, what became of the Likely Lads? What became of the dreams we had? Oh, what became of forever, though? Oh, what became of forever, though? We'll never know [Pre-Chorus : Carl & Peter, Both] But blood runs thicker, oh We're thick as thieves, you know If that's important to you Yes, it's important to me I tried to make you see You don't wanna know But you don't want to know [Chorus : Carl & Peter, Both] Oh, what became of the Likely Lads? What became of the dreams we had? Oh, what became of forever, though? Oh, what became of forever, though? We'll never know
