Seems like only yesterday 
But it started long ago 
Trials tribulations 
And notes in the autumn nights  
 
We didn't know way back then 
What brothers we really were 
Letting the time pass quickly 
And watching it go  
 
[Chorus:] 
But we stood together 
And we made each other strong 
We tried to comfort ourselves when the nights were long 
And we held back the tears 
When they needed to flow 
But where we once stood lie only footprints in the snow  
 
Even when it was hard 
To find a smiling face 
And when others would leave us 
Without a trace  
 
We never thought about tomorrow 
Or what she might bring 
We never stopped to realize 
That we might not always sing  
 
[Chorus] 
 
Seems like only yesterday 
God where'd the time go 
Where we once laughed lie only tears in the snow
