Get dolled up for the reunion

You'll be one of the girls that has aged like wine

You'll fret and fuss to get ready

But you need to know that the years have been kind

The nagging voice in the darkness

It's like your so-called friend that has stayed too long

Don't let it whisper too loudly

It threatens your nerve, it's smothers your song
[Refrão]

Don't let your heavy heart drag you down

Drag you down

The loneliness in the kitchen

I know her ghosts come 'round 'cause they haunt me too

Don't second-guess your potential

'Cause there's a heart of gold that she left there in you

Drag you down (2x)
