lyrics

When you’re back in town
I will have the same clothes
That I wore in high school halls
On your bed,
nothing more, Nothing less
Just imagine me as that, for when you come back around

I would never go back
To the times we’ve passed
But I remember one night
On your bed,
nothing more, Nothing less
These people don’t exist now
And won’t when you’re back in town

And the small talk makes me much sadder
Like we wasn’t close at all

seems like someone has been switching up our wires
I miss it when your hair was long

You are much tougher than I have been
When you came back in town

When you’re back in town
We’ll share a short clean song
In your small dark room
What’s new with you
Nothing much, nothing much
have you been writing some material, for when you’re back in town

And the small talk makes me sadder
Like we wasn’t close at all
And it seems like someones tampered with the evidence
And I miss it when your hair was long

It’s selfish I know
hoping that your hair is long
When you come back around
You are much tougher than I have been
When you come back in town
