Walter remember When the world was young And all the girls knew Walter's name
Walter isn't it a shame the way Our little world has changed
Do you remember Walter Playing cricket in the thunder and the rain
Do you remember Walter Smoking cigarettes behind your garden gate
Yes Walter was my mate
But Walter my old friend Where are you now
Walter's name Walter isn't it a shame the way Our little world has changed
Do you remember Walter How we said we'd fight the world So we'd be free
We'd save up all our money And we'd buy a boat And sail away to sea
But it was not to be
I knew you then but do I know you now
Walter you are just an echo of a world I knew so long ago Water
If you saw me now you wouldn't Even know my name
I bet you're fat and married And you're always home in bed By half-past eight And if I talked about the old times You'd get bored And you'll have nothing more to say
Yes people often change But memories of people can remain
