The Reunion

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Five year school reunion, our local home town bar There's taped down plastic table cloths and coats hung at the door Don't know if you are coming I know you'd have to travel pretty far [Verse 2] Lightspeed conversations 'bout jobs and politics Some people getting married and some starting businesses A couple leaving early They gotta get back home to see their kids [Chorus] Then for a moment I thought I caught your eye But it was only just the dust around your name So I'm asking 'round how you're doing now 'Cause you're the only reason that I came [Verse 3] Ten year school reunion, in the corner drinking something strong Patiently waiting for you to walk through the door, god, why is it taking so long? Then someone cracks a joke about how I should get up on stage and play a song [Verse 4] Oh, then John starts talking Jesus, while Joe's been losing faith And Sarah jumps right in, I guess she's always loved to be And a couple quiet words were shared Reserved for those who couldn't make today [Chorus] Then for a moment I thought I caught your eye But it was only just the dust around your name So I'm asking 'round how you're doing now 'Cause you're the only reason that I came [Verse 5] Fifty year reunion in someone's living room Talking 'bout the good old days and the friends that died too soon There's pictures on the table But all my favorites are the ones with you
