Past

I saw you on the street today

I could not catch your eye or you'd have heard me say

That you look just the same

But then I realized

We are not even friends and I was so surprised

When the teardrops came

I'm living in the past

Living in the past

Living in the past, I know

But the past is gone

I can't remember when

You didn't cross my mind and pull me back again

Into my reverie

And that's why I'm living in the past

And I gaze out the window as the world drifts by

And my eyes will glaze and I slip away

And my todays are gray, the seconds tick away

But if I close my eyes it's only yesterday

And I see rainbows surrounding you and me

But that was in the past

I know it was the past
