I KNEW YOU BEFORE
TOOK A LIFETIME
TO FORGET
BUT AS MY EYES
MEET YOURS I TAKE
ALL I CAN GET
LAY LIGHT UP
THE SHADOWS OF
MY HEART RETURN
STOLEN WORKS
OF ART
YEAH YOU CAN'T
DISCERN THIS
MOMENT'S GRACE
BUT I STILL
REMEMBER YOU
IN THAT BIG OLD
WHITE SUBURBAN
AND THOUGH YOU
LOOK RIGHT PAST
ME WITH DISREGARD
THE FIRST WON'T
HAPPEN TWICE
MY GAZE SHIFTS
TO THE GROUND
MORE ALONE THAN
I WAS THEN
I HAVE SEARCHED
YOUR EYES BUT THEY
DON'T COMPREHEND
I CRAWL BACK
INTO THE SHADOWS
OF MY HEART AND
JUST SIT THERE IN
THE DARK
WHERE YOU DON'T
REQUIRE THE LOVE
YOU'LL STILL TAKE
BUT I STILL
REMEMBER YOU
IN THAT BIG OLD
WHITE SUBURBAN
AND THOUGH YOU
LOOK RIGHT PAST
ME WITH DISREGARD
AND ALTHOUGH
I'VE SINCE MOVED ON
AND I'VE BEEN IN
LOVE A FEW TIMES
THERE'S STILL
A PIECE OF ME THAT
HOLDS ON TO YOU
'CAUSE THE FIRST
WON'T HAPPEN TWICE
IT WON'T HAPPEN TWICE
IT WON'T HAPPEN TWICE
OH OH OOO
I REMEMBER YOU
IN THAT BIG OLD
WHITE SUBURBAN
AND ALTHOUGH YOU
LOOK RIGHT PAST
ME WITH DISREGARD
AND ALTHOUGH
I'VE SINCE MOVED ON
AND I'VE BEEN IN
LOVE A FEW TIMES
THERE'S STILL A
PIECE OF ME THAT CAN'T
LET GO OF YOU
'CAUSE THE FIRST
WON'T HAPPEN TWICE
