Lyrics:
I was just walking around this unfamilliar city
bored of the tourist centers and not sure what to do
When in a sunlit park I recognized a silhouette
said it was so nice to see her again

(and the voice in my head went)
Forget those years we forgot to talk
let's drag this out of deadlock
We could reconnect if we just try
you won't get rejected this ain't where it dies

I sat down next to her, my face all smile and blush
thought it's been such a long time since we lost touch
I couldn't wait to hear just what had happened since she moved
and liven up my memories of high school

Sometimes when we walked home we pretended to be spies
sneaking through city centers on weekday nights
We'd hide behind the lanters, talked in riddles and rhymes
When we would say goodbye we'd be glad that we survived
(I was glad to be alive)

I won't deny that I enjoyed hearing my best friend tell her stories
but I can't deny there was something missing too
In the last half-year you were already changing way too fast for me
but in a way I'm happy you are now so much more than who you used to be

I guess it's unfair
to want to go back
to when our world was just the classroom
We are supposed to be mature
have bigger concerns
but since that day I've gotta admit that . . .

I can't help but think back
to the memories I didn't make
all the times I stayed away
from when she missed me on her night out

Now, alone in my room
so bittersweet the taste
of all the calls we made
when still, her smile just cut right through the bad connection

Sometimes when we walked home we pretended to be spies
sneaking through city centers on weekday nights
We'd hide behind the lanters, talked in riddles and rhymes
When we would say goodbye we'd be glad that we survived
