Lyrics
Day to day déjà vu
Experiencing repetitive familiarity in daily life
Nuance of a new moon
A subtle quality or shade of meaning like that of a new moon
It's all over and understood
Everything is concluded and comprehended
So far gone, gone for good
Far removed from the past, permanently
Fifth of whiskey, Fourth of July
Drinking a fifth of whiskey on the Fourth of July
Filing for divorce Friday night
Filing for divorce on a Friday night
I could sense something wasn't right
Sensing something was wrong
You didn't have to say a thing
No need to verbalize, could perceive it
I could see it in your eyes
Seeing the truth in your eyes
But once upon a time
Reflecting on a past time
We were young and you were mine
When we were young and together
I've got a photographic memory
Having an exceptional memory for past experiences
A past life, a Pontiac passenger seat
Recalling a previous life, particularly moments in a car
So let me get a good long last look at you
Desiring one last comprehensive and lingering gaze at you
Is that too much to ask?
Questioning if this request is too much
Little too late little lady
It's too late, regrets expressed to a woman
I've always complicated things
Admitting to making situations more complex than needed
Make my living, living in the past
Living by dwelling in the past
Just like last night or the night before last
Repeating actions or situations like the recent past
But that was some first summer
Reminiscing about a significant initial summer
Couple of star-crossed lovers
A couple in love facing fate's obstacles
in my step-brother's car
Recalling a memory involving a step-brother's car
Rosary on the rearview mirror
A rosary hanging on the car's rearview mirror
Where I watched you reapplying
Observing you while applying mascara
Your mascara
So I could get a good long last look at you
Questioning if this request is too much, yet again
Is that too much to ask?
