Nostalgia

Past the house where I was born

Everything was different then

It's strange to think I would've sworn

I'd never come back here again

But here I am drawn to it

By memories that were counterfeit

Nostalgia costs and one thing is clear

There never was a happy day round here

You called my name, my brakes got jammed

Thrown high enough to land on Mars

A painful way to meet someone

As I flew across those handlebars

Yet here I am drawn to you

By feelings that I never knew

It's hard to think of these things when I'm blue

I had to break my collarbone for you

And when I look at you I see

Something in your smile makes it all worthwhile

But nostalgia costs and it's in your eyes

And if we come out smiling I'll be surprised
