Dan Fogelbergs song "Same Old Lang Syne" song is one of my favorites. At one time a person told me that there is a part-2 to this song. That it discussed the couple in the song meeting again?

Here's what I found on the subject.

The hit single "Same Old Lang Syne" by Dan Fogelberg, released in 1980, did not have a sequel according to an interview with Dan in 1994.

Is it possible you are thinking of Harry Chapin's sequel to his song "Taxi"?

Harry Chapin released a hit single about meeting up with an old girlfriend called "Taxi" in 1972, which is similar in subject to Dan's song.

He released a sequel to the song "Taxi" in 1980 (the same year that Dan's single hit the charts) called "Sequel".

You can check out lyrics to all 3 songs below.

On a completely different note, talking about songs where someone meets up with a old flame, Bob Dylan touches on that subject in his song "Tangled Up In Blue".
