Friends Again from Prior Commitments by Family Obligation

Hadn’t seen your face in a little while
But I heard from friends that you’re doing well
Got a brand new band, I get it all mixed up
‘Cause your other band has a new lineup
It’s not confusing at all, I can’t keep it straight
Picked you up in the Volvo and we stayed out late
Told me all about why you’re so done with her
Wishing relationships were refundable

Then you were feeling hurt, you ripped your shirt
Moved on but then you called her
You quit your losing hand, and your brother’s band
Changed everything but then you called her

She never liked me but she always acted excited to see me
I kept my distance, can we be friends again?

Now I see your face at all the local shows
You were my first draft pick 2 years ago
It’s been so long, I don’t remember when
And I know better than to ask you how you’ve been
All our mutuals say you’re on the other side
But I can’t help but think of how it went last time
Finally saw your face at the tiki bar
Looking happier than you ever did with her

Bought new jeans to wear, you cut your hair
New you, but then you called her
You quit playing pretend, paying her rent
You walked away but then you called her

She never liked me but she always acted excited to see me
I kept my distance, can we be friends again?

She never liked me but she always acted excited to see me
I kept my distance, can we be friends again?
