My Past Is Present

My past is present in an hour glass dress

My head is spinning and I can't get my breath

I'm drinking doubles just one thing on my mind

I'm glad to see her but I wish I was blind

She makes her entrance and she looks like a dream

My fingers tremble but I can't feel a thing

My knees are shakin', I don't think I can stand

I don't talk about running boys, I don't think I can

I said it's over and I thought it was true

My discomposure makes me feel like a fool

My past is present with some stranger in tow

Why she looks happy boys, I don't want to know

So much confusion makes me feel like a clown

My past is present, and it's bringing me down

I told my friends that I was really okay

Then she walks in with him and blows me away

All conversation has just come to an end

This situation's really doing me in

Well

My past is present and it throws me a curve

I want to tell her but I don't have the nerve

I used to hold her in the palm of my hand

My past is present I just don't understand

Somebody help me just to hold back the years

My past is present and there's gonna be tears

I've tried to tell myself it's all a mistake

My past is present and it's all I can take

Well

My past is present
