Past Life
I was picking up a suit from the dry cleanersWhich was standard for meThursday, 12:30, I got a pretty solid routine these daysI don't know, it just works for meAnyway, I was leaving I was getting in my carAnd I went to adjust the rearview mirror, but in its reflectionJust for a second, I saw a figure, started to triggerMemories of what I had learned, stopped me in my tracksWho was that? it was my lover, my lover, from a past life
From a past life (feel like I saw a ghost)From a past life (so unexpected)From a past life (I was transfixed)From a past life
Well, somewhere between a lover and a friendIt was different back thenSurreal, poetic so I'd say, like a bizarre chick flick with a confusing endBut I shut it down, closed it offThe sounds and smells I made myself forgetA cheap solution to block out a friend, but it was realIt just feels like a past life
From a past life (crazy)From a past life (it takes a lot to trip me out)For the first timeIn a long time
So I go about my day as normalBut I can't seem to pass it off as just a random eventIt consumes meI thought I was moving on but I guess I was just switching offAnd now I see my life as the banal slog it instantly becameAnd I don't know if I can go on the sameBut I don't wanna dig up old bonesI mean, I don't even know if she has the same phone numberWho knows? Maybe she does
From a past life(I guess there's no harm in trying)From a past life(What's the worst that could happen?)For the first timeIn a long time(I tried to say it but it never came out right)Past lifeFrom a past life (you're not a stranger if you're always on my mind)For the first time (I know it's late, it just didn't feel right)In a long time
