I walked through the door with you
The air was cold
But something about it felt like home somehow
And I left my scarf there at your sister's house
And you still got it in your drawer even now
Oh, your sweet disposition
And my wide eyed gaze
We're singing in the car getting lost upstate
The automn leaves
Falling down like pieces into place
And I can picture it after all these days
And I know it's long gone
And that magic's not here no more
And I might be okay but I'm not fine at all
Chorus :
'Cause here we are again
On that little town street
You almost ran the red
'Cause you were looking over at me
Wind in my hair
I was there, I remember it all too well
Photo album on my counter
Your cheeks were turning red
You used to be a little kid with glasses
In a twin size bed
And your mother's telling stories
'Bout you on the tee ball team
You tell me about your past
Thinking your future was me
And I know it's long gone
And ther was nothing else I could do
And I forget about you
Long enough to forget why I needed to
Chorus :
'Cause here we are again
In the middle of the night
We're dancing 'round the kitchen
In the refrigerator light
Down the stairs
I was there, I remember it all too well
Well maybe we got lost in translation
Maybe I asked for too much
But maybe this thing was a masterpiece
'Til you tore it all up
Running scared
I was there, I remember it all too well
And you call me up again
Just to break me like a promise
So casually cruel in the name of being honest
I'm a crumbled up piece of paper
Lying here 'cause I remember it all, all, all too well
Time won't fly
It's like I'm paralyzed by it
I'd like to be my old self again
But I'm still trying to find it
After plaid shirt days and nights
When you made me your own
Now you mail back my things
And I walk home alone
But you keep my old scarf from that very first week
'Cause it reminds you of innocence
And it smells like me
You can't get rid of it
'Cause you remember it all too well, yeah
Chorus :
'Cause there we are again
When I loved you so
Back before you lost the one real thing
You've ever known
It was rare, I was there
I remember it all too well
Wind in my hair
You were there, you remember it all
Down the stairs
You were there, you remember it all
It was rare, I was there
I remember it all too well
