If You Know What I Mean - Live Greek Theater / 1976 - Neil Diamond

When the night returns just like a friend

When the evening comes to set me free

When the quiet hours

That wait beyond the day

Make peaceful sounds in me

Took a drag from my last cigarette

Took a drink from a glass of old wine

I closed my eyes and I could make it real

And feel it one more time

Can you hear it, babe

Can you hear it, babe

From another time, from another place

Do you remember it, babe

And the radio played like a carnival tune

As we lay in our bed in the other room

When we gave it away

For the sake of a dream in a penny arcade

If you know what I mean

If you know what I mean, babe

And here's to the songs we used to sing

And here's to the times we used to know

It's hard to hold them in our arms again

But hard to let them go

Do you hear it, babe

Do you hear it, babe

It was another time

It was another place

Do you remember it, babe

And the radio played like a carnival tune

As we lay in our bed in the other room

When we gave it away

For the sake of a dream in a penny arcade

If you know what I mean

If you know what I mean

If you know what I mean

If you know what I mean

If you know what I mean, babe

If you know what I mean
