I saw you just the other day

We drank some beers and watched the game

After all this time

I just can't figure out

Why I keep changing

And you stay the same

And I wake up

It's been a whole year now

I've moved off to Dallas

Said, "Fuck this town"

Now I can't find a reason to stay

I remember telling all my friends

It's been so much better since you moved in

Now I come to find

It gets tough sometimes

Without you

Had a dream just the other night

That you were still around

When I opened up my eyes to the morning light

You were nowhere to be found

I wake up

And it's been three years now

I'm doing better

And I think I found

A reason to carry on

But it's a shame she will never know

I swear you would've loved her so much

But sometimes it's tough

I wake up

And it's been five years since

The night that you fell off of that ship

It's safe to say I'm doing fine

Might have been the best year of my life

And I

Don't know quite just what to say

Except that I miss you

So much

So much

I wake up

And it's been eight damn years

Been a long time since I shed some tears

I cried the day I turned twenty-two

'Cause it's been too long since I've seen you

And I

Don't know quite what to say

Except that I miss you

So much

So much

Sometimes it's tough

I saw you just the other day

We drank some beers and watched the game

After all this time

I just can't figure out

Why I keep changing

And you stay the same
