[Verse 1]
Tonight we meet at last this girl you had a thing with
A thing with
I'll keep an open mind
A girl you had a thing with
A thing with
We've dated six months now
It's time I get to know her
[Chorus]
The two of you are friends
I shouldn't mind but I can't help it
It reminds me of the past
I pretend that I'm fine
I'm fine
[Verse 2]
The way she talks to you, this girl that you are friends with
Is that how friends talk?
The way she looks at you, this girl that you are friends with
I do think she stares
But she is rude and fun
Sincere and open minded
[Chorus]
The two of you are friends
I shouldn't mind but I can't help it
It reminds me of the past
I pretend that I'm fine
I'm fine
[Verse 3]
Past is past
But not in my heart
Past is past
My heart
Past is past
But not in my heart
I've been through this before
And it broke my heart
[Verse 4]
Of this I ask myself, those girls that you have been with
Are they all a sign of how we will part?
And I should think it's fine, those girls that you have been with
It is who you are
But it tears me apart
If you could choose a path, then why should you choose ours?
The easy way, with wife and kids
A life like all the others
That's what happened in the past
I can take it this time
It's not fine
[Verse 3 Reprise]
'Cause past is past
But not in my heart
I've been through this before
And it broke my heart
Past is past
But not in my heart
I've been through this before
And it broke my heart
