[Verse 1]

I used to know you when we were young

You were in all my dreams

We sat together in period one

Fridays at 8:15

Now I see your face in the strangest places

Movies and magazines

I saw you talking to Christopher Walken

On my TV screen

[Chorus]

But I will wait for you

As long as I need to

If you ever get back to Hackensack

I'll be here for you

[Verse 2]

I used to work in a record store

Now I work for my dad

Scraping the paint off the hardwood floors

The hours are pretty bad

Sometimes I wonder where you are

Probably in LA

That seems to bе where evеrybody else ends up these days

[Chorus]

But I will wait for you

As long as I need to

If you ever get back to Hackensack

I'll be here for you

[Chorus]

And I will wait for you

As long as I need to

If you ever get back to Hackensack

I'll be here for you

[Outro]

And if you ever get back to Hackensack

I'll be here for you
