[Verse 1]

Met you last night at some party I wandered to

Are you my friend now?

You follow me and I follow you

In the morning we pass quietly on the street

You won't ever get to know each face you see

[Chorus]

Wish I could make a friend today, wish I could know your first pet's name

You use in all of your passwords since you were a child

Wish I could ask "How was your day?"

I wish I knew the person's name

You think of under the covers when you slip into the night

[Post-Chorus]

Da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da, da-da

Da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da, da-da

[Verse 2]

Hold the door for the person behind me, it's the only time

To show some warmth 'fore they brush past and swiftly return to their life

Could we lock eyes on the subway, fall in love today?

Or hands in pockets, forget their face, and look away?

[Chorus]

Wish I could make a friend today, wish I could know your first pet's name

You use in all of your passwords since you were a child

Wish I could ask "How was your day?"

I wish I knew the person's name

You think of under the covers when you slip into the night

[Post-Chorus]

Da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da, da-da

Da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da, da-da

[Outro]

We come so close

To changing each other all of the time

We come so close

Da-da-da-da, da-da

Mm, mm

Ah, ah, ah, ah
