The Old Dive

The Old Dive

I miss the old dive
We used to find ourselves there every night

Life was so simple then and we didn’t care
The place was filled with people, we could barely see
Back then there was electricity in the wires, in the air
Everyone in their movie playing on screen

If only I could just press rewind

I miss the old dive
We used to find ourselves there every night

It was our lost and found, a room of our own
But that was the olden days, so long ago
Back in those days you’d drive your car to the corner alone
And check on the mail that was left on your phone

If only I could just press rewind

With the guys they’d shake hands
Kiss the girls on the cheek
Hand out addresses, numbers
And then wait for a call

They’d put on their headphones
And type on a screen
Then send a text or write a rhyme
On the bathroom stall
