Here it is:

Harry:
What does this song mean? For my whole life I don't know what this song 
means. I mean, "Should old acquaintance
be forgot". Does that mean we should forget old acquaintances, or does it 
mean if we happen to forget them we should remember them, which is not 
possible
because we already forgot them?

Sally:
Well, maybe it just means that we should remember that we forgot them or 
something. Anyway, it's about old friends.
