Oh my love I lost you again
We were jumping in the river but I never learned to swim
In my life I wanted to give you something more
Something more
A yellow bird is knocking at my feet
She talks a different language that I never could speak
Everyday I try hard to be something more
Something more
And you come back again
Like a movie I've seen before
Oh way back when
We were something more
It might be a long long time
You wrote me a letter in riddle and rhyme
Secretly so I wouldn't find you anymore
Anymore
And I can see it clearly now
You shot for the stars but you fell to the ground
That's why you left this northern town for something more
Something more
And you come back again
Like a movie I've seen before
Oh way back when
We were something more
Then one day I saw your face
On the cover of a magazine you had a different name
But those eyes still look the same as before
When we were something more
And you come back again
Like a movie I've seen before
And you come back again
Running out of closing doors
Oh way back when
We were something more
