Tulane

Back in the 90's when I was a kid
Hide and seek down the street is what we did
We didn't think anything of it
That was just the life we lived

I was seven years old
On the playground that changed my world
You see I'd met a girl
And I never looked back

You know they say there's no going home
Once time has passed and you're all grown
But back on Tulane I'll remember
A girl named Emily forever

You see we both went to school together
And I didn't realize yet why it would matter
Out on the playground we were royalty
When really it was just her and me

Other kids would laugh at us
It never bothered me much
When I held her hand you see
Time stood still

You know they say there's no going home
Once time has passed and you're all grown
But back on Tulane I'll remember
A girl named Emily forever

Fast forward to the end of third grade
And things just weren't quite the same
You see I was moving far away
And I'd never see her again

Twenty years have come and gone
Since then I've loved and lost
But you never forget the first one
Or the memory

You know they say there's no going home
Once life has passed and you're all grown
But back on Tulane I'll remember
A girl named Emily forever
