Old Songs

I meant to call you but I didn't
'Cause your phone number was hidden
The years between our old lives were to blame
'Cause it was stored under a forgotten nickname

But I remember when it came across my screen
The language we made up when we were seventeen
You said you were coming around, would I be around?
'Cause that band we used to love was coming in to town

Then we put our hands together
Start to feel a little bit better
Makes a blue moon feel like no time at all
And I thank God I took your call

I close my eyes and see the places we checked off
While you tell old stories pick them up right where you left off
'Cause the heart still beats in our little old hometown
All we need are familiar streets and the windows down
And a couple of old songs

Remember that mix CD that you made for the drive to the city
I still sing along to track nine cause it's so pretty
I thought I'd see you when that bar on fourth street closed
The bartender played all the old songs we used to know

I close my eyes and see the places we checked off
While you tell old stories pick them up right where you left off
'Cause the heart still beats in our little old hometown
All we need are familiar streets and the windows down
And a couple of old songs

I close my eyes and see the places we checked off
While you tell old stories pick them up right where you left off
'Cause the heart still beats in our little old hometown
All we need are familiar streets and the windows down
And a couple of old songs
