She said she hadn’t seen me in a while
All those years and how quickly they passed
I was dumbstruck by friendly hugs and awkward smiles
Then she was gone, it all happened so fast
Did I almost cry on her shoulder?
Was I just about to bring her back home?
Did she almost buy what I told her
that I’ve really grown
by having the time of my life
living alone?
So I made her bump into me by choice
just to watch her lips moving again
All my answers were given with my deepest voice
trying to hide how damn shallow I am
Did I almost cry on her shoulder?
Was I just about to bring her back home?
Did she almost buy what I told her
that I’ve really grown
by having the time of my life
living alone?
Did I almost think I didn’t really lie
to myself
Has she almost always been aware that I
couldn’t stand
to stand on my own
living alone
Well I tend to let chances slip away
Like the one right in front of my nose
So the words in my mind that I’d prepared to say
didn’t come out, it was not even close
That I’ve really grown
by having the time of my life
living alone?
