lyrics

THEN WE BROKE UP

You used to make overnight oats
If we went out you liked to order avocado toast
The closest place to us that made it wasn’t very close
But we we’re always up to take a stroll

THEN WE BROKE UP

You loved little dogs
So I would keep my eyes peeled everywhere we walked
If the owner had let you say hello you’d be overjoyed
You would make a certain face and certain noise

THEN WE BROKE UP

We’d go into every Whole Foods Market
Free samples always made the hot bar a target,
We’d take as many free samples as we pleased
Only once did they ever ask us to leave

THEN WE BROKE UP

We played a lot of Scrabble
It became habitual, we didn’t just dabble,
We took time with our turns
And memorized all the two letter words

THEN WE BROKE UP

We had a lot of fun
We caught a lot of sun
We really had a ball

THEN WE BROKE UP

We really had a blast
We had a lot of laughs
We thought we had it all

THEN WE BROKE UP

We’d pay for one movie and sneak into the others and sneak snacks in to avoid artificial butter
Once you shoved a bunch into your shirt and pretended
You were pregnant

THEN WE BROKE UP

When we rode the train we would try to sit
In the seats by the end where only two people fit
If it was nice out and we were outside we would ride between cars
When we were sweethearts

THEN WE BROKE UP

We rode bikes from here to there
We went through a few bikes over the years
I would ride out in front, you would stay in the rear
I would let you know the coast was clear

THEN WE BROKE UP

When you were trying to choose an outfit you’d put on fashion shows
I enjoyed watching you strike a pose
My input would help you choose your clothes

WE HAD A LOT OF FUN
WE GOT A LOT OF SUN
WE REALLY HAD A BALL

THEN WE BROKE UP

WE REALLY HAD A BLAST
WE HAD A LOT OF LAUGHS
WE THOUGHT WE HAD IT ALL

We would get lost together
Floss together
Watch The Office
Smell each other’s armpits
Share each other’s art
Share each other’s hearts
Smell each other’s farts

THEN WE BROKE UP

I told you all my secrets
I told them in sequence from the shallow to the deepest
The horrible, the abnormal, and the freakish
I knew we reached the zenith because you were never squeamish

THEN WE BROKE UP

We went on tours,
You met my family and I met yours,
We reclined our seat backs on planes
Before takeoff but we were not ashamed

THEN WE BROKE UP

We were hardly ever apart
We’d walk fifth avenue in Sunset Park
Looking like two giants among the Mexicans
We were the best of friends

THEN WE BROKE UP

We had a lot of fun
We caught a lot of sun
We really had a ball

THEN WE BROKE UP

We really had a blast
We had a lot of laughs
We thought we had it all

THEN WE BROKE UP
