Lyrics: 
So you say you fell in love 
And you?re gonna get married 
Raise yourself a family 
How simple life can be 
Somewhere it all went wrong 
And your plans just fell apart 
And you aint got the heart 
To finish what you started 
 
Chorus: 
The ones that you loved 
The ones that you left behind 
The ones you said you?d try to find 
Are they trying to find you 
 
You walked out that door 
To find out where you belong 
To fulfill your own selfish dreams 
I think you might be forgotten 
The ones that you loved  
 
By: The Dropkick Murphys
