It's so good to see you
How have you been?
I heard you got married
Had a couple kids
If you've got some pictures of them I'd love to see
But in parentheses
(It kills me that your kids and my kids won't have the same last name
My picture won't live in your wallet so long it starts to fade
Breathe in and smile to hold back the tears
I'm so pathetic but it's so weird
How we used to be so caught up in love
Now we're just catching up)
I'm doing real good
Still chasing my dreams
My sister got married but
I don't have a ring
And I think I'm getting close to where I've always wanted to be
But in parentheses
(I always thought you'd come back
Thought I couldn't be replaced
Since I'm not the one, can I be the one that got away?
If 18 year old me saw us here
She wouldn't be able to hold back the tears
Cause we used to be so caught up in love
Oh we were so in love
Then we just blinked
Now we never speak
I watched our love shrink
Into memories that I can't frame above the fireplace
So they clutter every corner of my brain
But I don't even know this version of you
You could just be a shell of the person I knew
Nostalgia in flesh in bone
A start with the rest unknown
So I won't say what I think
I'll keep it short & sweet
Leave these thoughts locked between parentheses)
It's so good to see you
I'll see you around
Tell your mom I said hi
I'm sure she's glad you're back in town
