Lyrics

[Verse] Been fifteen years since the decision I don't think about it much, never regretted it once But maybe that's the privilege I'm living in Don't talk often, but still in touch Could be a random call or texts that flood in a bunch Subject matter is limited by necessity Twenty years is a long time, too long for second-guessing No asking those unanswered questions We used to wake up, eat dinner, and go to sleep after breakfast Watch you strip the bed Sun rising on the skyline that hit right in thе solar plexus Silhouetted, big windows, twеnty-second floor God only knows what the rent is, nine-eleven '06, '07, ball from the drunk file And recently we had tension, but that night, the mood was pensive Like I said, we don't reminisce Already paid our dues and I'm a spendthrift Sometimes it's been six months, sometimes years But it's love there, lives shared, an odd friendship I don't know why I waited to tell her in person I don't know why Sometimes I wish we were the people we were then She was surprised I showed her pictures, she smiled Said the oldest got my eyes before he sounded different We toasted She sent a present at Christmas with a note I put the box under the tree, the card in my coat After everyone was 'sleep, I read it on the back porch while I smoked
