It's so obvious
These words are hard to speak
But this town doesn't feel like home anymore at least not to me
On long drives, I'll reminisce
Late-night sitting under Edison lamps
Telling our stories that brought the best out of me
Open my head showed me a world that I'd missed
So ask me how I've been
Show me that you still think of me
I know you hate this
It's just I learned to cope with the memories
From the moment you stepped off the plane
Back from the east coast
I knew there was no future for us
You make it obvious
You're a traveler and we're from different worlds
And you're the universe to me
That I want so badly to explore
And I'll never forget the taste of hope on your lips
So ask me how I've been
Show me that you still think of me
I know you hate this
It's just I learned to cope with the memories
From the moment you stepped off the plane
Back from the east coast
I knew there was no future for us
