I Changed By Not Changing At All
I seem to recognize your face.
Haunting, familiar yet, I can't seem to place it
Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name
Lifetimes are catching up with me
All these changes taking place,
I wish I'd seen the place
But no one's ever taken me
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
I swear I recognize your breath
Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising
Me you wouldn't recall,
for I'm not my former
It's hard when you're stuck upon the shelf.
I changed by not changing at all, small town predicts my fate
Perhaps that's what no one wants to see
I just want to scream... Hello!
My God it's been so long, never dreamed you'd return.
But now here you are, and here I am
Hearts and thoughts they fade... away...
Haven't listened to Pearl Jam in years, Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town just gave me goosebumps... bet Daughter will too, it always did.
