I'm glad that we're back together again
We're reunited
I'm glad that we're back together again

Reunited, we're reunited
We're reunited, we're reunited

I missed you, I missed you

Reunited, reunited

Even though I knew we were somebody else's
It didn't change the way that I felt for you
I still wanted you, babe
You're the only one, ey ey
