Walked in expecting you’d be late But you got here early And you stand and wait And I walk to you You pulled my chair out and helped me And you don’t know how nice that is But I do

You said you never met one girl Who has as many James Taylor records as you But I do We tell stories and you don’t know why I’m coming off a little shy But I do
But you throw your head back laughing like a little kid I think it’s strange that you think I’m funny ‘cause he never did I’ve been spending the last 8 months thinking all love ever does Is break and burn and end But on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again
And we walk down the block to my car And I almost brought him up But you start to talk about the movies That your family watches every single Christmas And I won’t talk about that For the first time, what’s past is past
