MATTHEW

I saw you just the other day
We drank some beers and watched the game
After all this time I just cant figure out
Why I keep changing and you stay the same

I wake up and it’s been a whole year now
I 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

I had a dream just the other night
That you were still around
When I opened 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’ve found a reason to carry on
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 what to say except that I miss you so much

I wake up and it’s been eight damn years
Been a long time since I’ve shed some tears
I cried the day I turned 22
‘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
But 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 cant figure out
Why I keep changing and you stay the same
