Can't Get You Back

I'm sure you know by now
That I flunked out and I'm back in town
Consider walking to your apartment
But it's been years since we've last spoken
Nostalgia won't leave me alone
Contemplating by the phone
Against my will I punch your number in
Your answer left my heart near broken

You said I never knew
What I had until I lost it
And you grew up
And it's not your fault that I haven't
And I'm still stuck in the past on all we used to have
And no matter what I do time won't move backward
I can't get you back

I guess you have a point now don't you
But I'll bet the shirt I let you borrow still fits
I wonder if it haunts you from the
Bottom of your closet where it sits
Under a pile and a box of my things
You still hold onto a part of me too

And it's so unfair
You're right there right there
A drive down the road
I see your building from my window and
Remember when I'd walk you home
Swore that my heart would explode
We would kiss in the street
But then you watched me leave

I guess I never knew
What I had until I lost it
And you grew up
And it's not your fault that I haven't
And I'm still stuck in the past on all we used to have
And no matter what I do time won't move backward
I can't get you back
