[Verse 1]
I still got your VHS tape of Godzilla
Still got your coffee stain on my sweatshirt you brought back from Amarillo
I saw a black Trans Am, what a blast from the past, no, but you weren't in it
And that Dylan record sounds like you no matter how I spin it
[Chorus]
And I know that's a strange way to tell you, baby, I've been thinking of ya
And I know it's a little outta left, but if you leave it on your chest, it'll haunt ya
'Cause you can't fight a smile if I still makes you laugh
And you don't bring it up if you don't want it back
And you don't pick up the phone just to say "I don't love you"
And you don't get nostalgic for nothing
[Verse 2]
I can hear the TV on in the background from the kitchen
Yeah, the weatherman said record rain tonight and I had a vision
We were parked in the back of the cul-de-sac with a headphone splitter
I swear if I closed my eyes right now, I'd still taste gum and liquor
[Chorus]
And I know that's a strange way to tell you, baby, I've been thinking of ya
And I know it's a little outta left, but if you leave it on your chest, it'll haunt ya
'Cause you can't fight a smile if I still makes you laugh
And you don't bring it up if you don't want it back
And you don't pick up the phone just to say "I don't love you"
And you don't get nostalgic for nothing
No, you don't get nostalgic for nothing
[Bridge]
Fine, I **** miss you
[Chorus]
And I know that's a strange way to tell you that I want you, do you still want me?
And I know it's a little outta left, but if I leave it on my chest, it'll haunt me
'Cause you can't fight a smile if it still makes you laugh
And you don't bring it up if you don't want it back
And you don't pick up the phone just to say "I don't love you"
And you don't get nostalgic for nothing
No, you don't get nostalgic for nothing
No, you don't get nostalgic for nothing
