All Too Well

I walked through the door with you

The air was cold

But something about it felt like home somehow

And I left my scarf there

At your sister's house

And you've still got it in your drawer, even now

Oh, your sweet disposition

And my wide-eyed gaze

We're singing in the car getting lost upstate

Autumn leaves falling down

Like pieces into place

And I can picture it after all these days

And I know it's long gone

And that magic's not here no more

And I might be okay

But I'm not fine at all

'Cause there we are again

On that little town street

You almost ran the red

'Cause you were lookin' over at me

Wind in my hair, I was there

I remember it all too well

Photo album on the counter

Your cheeks were turning red

You used to be a little kid with glasses

In a twin sized bed

And your mother's telling stories

About you on the tee ball team

You taught me about your past

Thinking your future was me

And I know it's long gone

And there was nothing else I could do

And I forget about you long enough

To forget why I needed to

'Cause there we are again

In the middle of the night

We're dancing 'round the kitchen

In the refrigerator light

Down the stairs, I was there

I remember it all too well

And maybe we got lost in translation

Maybe I asked for too much

But maybe this thing was a masterpiece

'Till you tore it all up

Running scared, I was there

I remember it all too well

And you call me up again

Just to break me like a promise

So casually cruel

In the name of being honest

I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lying here

'Cause I remember it all, all, all too well

Time won't fly

It's like I'm paralysed by it

I'd like to be my old self again

But I'm still trying to find it

After plaid shirt days

And nights when you made me your own

Now you mail back my things

And I walk home alone

But you keep my old scarf

From that very first week

'Cause it reminds you of innocence

And it smells like me

You can't get rid of it

'Cause you remember it all too well

'Cause there we are again

When I loved you so

Back before you lost

The one real thing you've ever known

It was rare, I was there

I remember it all too well

Wind in my hair, you were there

You remember it all

Down the stairs, you were there

You remember it all

It was rare, I was there

I remember it all too well
