lyrics

Left a dollar on the register today
35 working at the local Safeway
Saw a person from the back and I thought it was you
The years have passed and I’ve halted my progress
but it’s good to see you come around on the holiday
and find some time to reminisce about the days of our youth

Even though I don’t say much, I love our talks
and you could stay longer than the holiday
Even though I don’t say much

We could hang together every single weekend
we’ve always liked each other now we got a reason
to see past all the other stuff
I have become tired of the way I have been living
and you seem like you have also lots of feeling
except when we’re laughing it up

Breaking bottles on the curbside all the way
we would run around together like a hurricane
saw a person from the back and I thought it was you
We could stay in for the night and just get high
play some Golden Eye or build a model airplane
saw a person from the back and I wished it was you

Even though I don’t say much, I love our talks
and you could stay longer than the holiday
Even though I don’t say much

We could hang together every single weekend
we’ve always liked each other now we got a reason
to see past all this smaller stuff
I have become tired of the way I have been living
and you seem like you have also lots of feeling
except when we’re laughing it up

And even though I can’t compete with money or degrees
you seem much less stressed when we’re hanging out
Even though I can’t compete.

Left a dollar on the register today
35 working at the local Safeway
Saw a person from the back and I thought it was you
