Paroles : Down at the So & So on Somewhere

Trigonometry tutors often go to dance class three times a week
You taught me that at some point that night
Connecting dots tangent to your cheek
You check your timewarp watch in the car
The angle ain't all oblique

There we were
Down at the so and so on somewhere
Cross town from where we were some other time
Don't you remember we were happy there?
Can you remember it right now?

I can picture powder blue matches in the mirrors and I had to go
Get things at the gas station, fast forward to the last time and apropos
Of nothing, called you up in a car the very same color so

It couldn't have been cuter
Down at the so and so on someplace
Not far from where you lived some other time
Don't you remember we were happy then?
Can you remember when right now?

The dog's asleep in its crate
And everything is right with the world perhaps
But I wouldn't see you like that again for years
Now one can't make good the gaps
I wake up trying to text emoticons and XO, all caps

Would you meet me
Down at the so and so on somewheres?
When was it ever enough? Was never enough
Don't you remember we were happy there?
Can you remember it right?

There we were
Down at the so and so on somewhere
When was it ever enough? Was never enough
Don't you remember we were happy there?
Can you remember it right now?
