JOE
I’m lying on the couch you used to sleep on
After we went out to our typical base
No bus was going to your house before dawn
So pre-gaming and after hours was at my place
​
Bad music and cheap wine
Checking out the people we knew
I was your wing person and you were mine
Saying I was your best boo
​
Between you and me is a huge gap
And both of us have retreated
Growing up is such a trap
What was can’t be repeated
​
Collecting myself ringing the bell with your name
As always your mom comes to the door
And then she’s pouring us a couple of champagne
We go to your room up on the first floor
​
TV's on mute in the background
We sit at your desk on some old chair
You give me a glimpse into your DJ sound
We don’t need many words to share
​
Between you and me is a huge gap
And both of us have retreated
Growing up is such a trap
What was can’t be repeated
​
Your house is not your mom’s anymore
And when I ring the bell your son opens the door
You have a special place in my heart
I’m forever listening to your techno art
​
Between you and me is a huge gap
And both of us have retreated
Growing up is such a trap
What was can’t be repeated
