Paroles de Passerby

Ten bucks for a coffee cup
Never used to cost this much
Nothing stays the way it was, I guess everything changes
I took a walk around the block
Another building going up
Nothing like another walk, I guess everything changes

But it was you and me against the world
We said until we die
And that you never lose my gaze or pull your weight off of my shirt
If I passed you walking down these lonely city streets at night
Tell me, would you walk right past me, just another passerby?

I'm always looking back
Always looking back for you
'Cause I'm always looking back
Always looking back for you, baby

For sale sign hanging on the door
My favorite record store
The human lives won the war, guess everything changes
I thought you would of wanted
Turns out I got it wrong
The only thing worth counting on is that everything changes

Well it was you and me against the world
I'm always looking back
Always looking back for you
'Cause I'm always looking back
Always looking back for you, baby

Oh, and I wonder
Well, how have you been?
Who are you with?
And is his love like mine?
Have you moved on?
Was I just gone up out of your love life?
If you could see me out on the street
Tell me, would you look behind?
Would you walk right past me, just another passerby?

It's you and me against the world
We said until we die

I'm always looking back
Always looking back for you
Yeah, I'm always looking back
Always looking back for you, baby

Oh, do you wonder
Well, how have I been?
Who am I with?
Is her love like yours?
Have I moved on?
Was I just gone?
Did I leave and close the door?
And if you see me out on the street
Tell me, would you look behind?
Would you walk right past me, just another passerby?
