I cherish two carefree years beside you
No one quite like us, a rarity
But your feelings evolved and only grew
It's all too familiar to me

Separated by cities and shorelines
The ocean can't wash the hurt away
And when we finally reunite
I can tell there's so much you won't say

There's a boy I know
Who misread the signals
And had amity shift to his descent
Easy for lines to blur
A heart left hungrier
Connections can be hard to comprehend
But even so, I know we were never the same

Wilted boutonnières perched on a dresser
Next to letters laced with faint perfume
Much as I pretend, oh I confess you're
So hard to forget; maybe I don't want to

Smiles try to disguise but damp eyes reveal
Their cold confusion cuts to the core
I know I need to give you time to heal
Oh it's so hard to go back to the way before

There's a man I know
Who chose to let sparks grow
He made mistakes he then tried to defend
So often the lines blur
A heart left hungrier
Emotions kept him from making amends
But even so, I know we were never the same

So let them ask me, "Who's the boy whose echoes fill your songs?"
And let them pass judgment and think they know
They will never guess the depth, yes they'll always be wrong
We're not the others who've walked down this road

There's someone I know
Who had more taken than bestowed
Was left with cuts I wish that I could mend
Easy for lines to blur
A heart left hungrier
A bitter aftertaste from the word 'friend'
Oh so I know, I know (I know) we'll never be the same

Torturous reminders every moment
Fragments of you that I can't escape
My sweater seems to taunt me with your scent
On every radio, a Billy Joel song plays

You can choose to leave photographs frameless
But I'll still keep dozens up to see
You can choose to always leave me nameless
I don't think I could ever repress you and me

There's a girl I know
Who broke the heart she stole
A casualty she'll always repent
Too often the lines blur
A heart left hungrier
Sometimes scars left are worse than we intend
Tale that's happened countless times and I'm sure will again
But even so, I know we'll never be the same
Oh and I know I know, I'll never be the same
