All Too Well
I walked through the door with you
- I walked through the door with you
- the air was cold
- but something bout it felt like
- home some how and I
- left my scarf there at your sister's house
- and you've still got it
- in your drawer even now
- oh your sweet disposition
- and my wide eyed gae
- we're singing in the car
- getting lost up state
- autumn leaves falling down like
- pieces into place and I
- can picture it after all these days
- and I now it's long gone and
- that magic's not here no more
- and I might be okay but I'm not
- fine at all
- 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 the counter
- your cheeks were turning red
- you used to be a little kid with glasses
- in a twin sized bed
- and your mother's telling stories about you
- on a tee ball team
- you taught me bout your past
- thinking your future was me
- and you were tossin me the car keys
- F the patriarchy keychain on the ground
- we were always skippin town
- And I was thinking on the drive down
- any time now
- He's gonna say it's love
- you never called it what it was
- til we were dead and gone and
- buried check the pulse and come back
- swearing it's the same
- after three months in the grave
- and then you wondered where it went to
- as I reached for you but
- all I felt was shame
- and you held my lifeless frame
- and I know it's long gone and
- there was nothing else I could do
- and I forget about you long enough
- to forget why I needed to
- cause there we are again in the
- middle of the night
- we're dancing around the kitchen in the refrigerator light
- down the stairs I was there
- I remember it all too well
- and there we are again when
- nobody had to know
- You kept me like a secret
- but I kept you like an oath
- Sacred prayer and we'd swear
- to remember it all too well yeah
- 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 to well
- hey you call me up again
- just to break me like a promise
- so casually cruel in the
- name of being honest
- I'm a crumpled up piece of paper
- lying here cause I remember it
- all all all all
- They say all's well that ends well
- but I'm in a new hell everytime
- you double cross my mind
- You said if we had been closer
- in age maybe it would've been fine
- And that made me want to die
- the idea you had of me
- who was she a never needy
- ever lovely jewel
- whose shine reflects on you
- not weeping in the party bathroom
- some actress askin me what happened
- you that's what happened you
- you who charmed my dad with
- self effacing jokes
- sippin coffee like you're on a
- late night show
- but then he watched me watch the
- front door all night willin you to come
- and he said it's supposed to be fun
- turning 21
- 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 mailed back my things
- and I walk home alone
- but you keep my old scarf
- from that every 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
- 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
- And I was never good at telling
- jokes but the punch line goes
- I'll get older but your lovers stay my age
- from when your brooklyn broke
- my skin and bones
- I'm a soldier who's returning
- half her weight and
- did the twin flame bruise paint you blue
- just between us did the love affair
- maim you too cause in this city's
- barren cold I still remember the first
- fall of snow and how it glistened as it fell
- I remember it all too well
- just between us did the love affair
- maim you all too well
- just between us did you remember it
- all too well
- just between us I remember all too
- I was there I was there
- down the stairs I was there I was there
- sacred prayer I was there I was there
- It was rare you remember all too well
- I was there I was there I was there
- down the stairs I was there I was there
- sacred prayer I was there I was there
- It was rare you remember all too
