1
Last night, old friend, big wedding
2
and I knew you'd be there too
3
Look at us, all grown up
4
collared shirts and high-heeled shoes
5
You cross the room
6
just the decent thing to do,
7
make sure we'd all been introduced
8
You brought your new friend,
9
I brought mine
10
shake hands, pay courtesy its due
11
But it takes its toll
12
and it takes it whole
13
We've lived too long, too close
14
So call off your ghost
15
You're asking, "Can't we just be friends?"
16
but this bell in my chest still rings
17
and it's better to just pretend
18
that I can't see you waving
19
can't hear you call my name and
20
I know how much you hate it
21
But babe, I gotta walk away
22
You once said if we were careful,
23
that we could do this our whole lives
24
Ah, but one of us got clumsy
25
and both of us got wise
26
and now we're not so young, seems
27
our wishing well's gone dry
28
CHORUS
29
We've been living too long, too close,
30
and I'm ready to let you go
31
I'm ready
32
so call off your ghost
33
I think she lives around here
34
I see her almost daily
35
all I can do to stop myself
36
from saying something crazy
37
I don't think badly of her
38
I hope she makes you happy
39
it's just a lot to ask to watch your future
40
walking past me
41
I know that jealousy's a perfect waste of time
42
but left to my devices,
43
I've spent far too long wasting mine
44
CHORUS
