Still the Same Lyrics



"The table looked nice" she said

She said "you set it very well"

I told her I was nervous

She said that she could tell



"Your dress looked nice" I said

"It's always been my favorite one"

I could tell that she was nervous

At least I'm not the only one



Yeah well baby, baby

I'm wondering what you're thinking



Her plane takes off at ten

We've got to leave the house by eight

She's packing up her suitcase

We're always running late



"I'm taking this" she says

It's our picture in a frame

She's hoping it can hold us

Keep everything the same



Yeah well baby, baby

It's probably wishful thinking



I was told not long ago

I'd always be the one for you

But what you sold was a piece of time

That doesn't quite belong to you

And in a year we'll claim

That everything is still the same



But here's an example of things gone wrong

You'll find another guy who can write you songs

And I'll find a girl that is just like you

And she'll want me to love her

What am I to do?

Tell me what do you think I will do



I was told not long ago

I'd always be the one for you

But what you sold was a piece of time

That doesn't quite belong to you

And in a year we'll claim

That everything is still the same
