was it really so long ago
we were taking photographs
of each other in our winter pageant clothes
skipping school going home
running for shelter from a sudden thunderstorm
kissing raindrops on your nose
what part did I play
in making you the way you are
what more can I say to convince you
you didn't have to go so far
you didn't have to go so far
you may as well live a universe away now
I'll probably never see you again
I wonder where you went
where do you go what do you see
and do you ever think of me
and california
and all that time we spent
what part did I play
in making you the way you are
what more can I say to convince you
you didn't have to go so far
you didn't have to go so far
