I met the me back from 2016

The funniest thing, 'cos he cut me in line

For an americano, a seat by the window

Pulled a chair and I smiled

I offered a cigarette

Right, you hadn't started yet

That doesn't happen till Europe in mid July

Trust me you'll try, to can the habit

Just gotta have it

He was un-characteristically quiet

Tried to unpack the bags forming under my eyes

Raved about the new diet he's trying

I said 'you might break it tonight'

He starts to talk with those question mark eyes

Do you work in psychology?

Are you still friends with those guys?

Do you find time, to be alone do you spend it online?

How is the family? Is everyone happy?

Are they all still annoying? Do you all still get along?

Do you still write songs

And sing to a packed out stadium home?

I was un-characteristically quiet

Tried to hide all the tears falling under my eyes

He said 'you're still a terrible liar,

So don't try to tell me you're fine'

I let out a smirk, its one of our quirks

Said as much I'd love to, I don't wanna spoil the surprise

But you'll be just fine.. pay me no mind

Things might not work out the way that we planned it

But don't take a singular moment for granted

And love with all that you are, show up for you

Save for a car

We were un-characteristically quiet,

Just one glance and the waters were calm in our eyes

Ten years on heaven knows I'm still trying

As best as i can, and I'll understand

Ten years from now, when i see my face again
