simple things

[Verse 1] I'm out of touch While the blacktop's burning up I'm passing signs New Jersey on my mind And there's a hole I can't fill With small talk, is my name still In the phone book upstairs? I-I-I [Chorus] Well, it's long hair and town fairs It's crazy that I'm not there It's wide eyes and tan lines It's never saying goodbye It's the simple things we had Now I'll never get them back Wish I'd known just what I had I-I-I [Verse 2] I talk too much When the photo booth is up And when we touch And I feel like throwing up Sometimes I can't sit still Did your mom go sell the treadmill Laying in the garage? I-I-I [Chorus] It was long hair and town fairs It's crazy that I'm not there It's wide eyes and tan lines It's never saying goodbye It's the simple things we had Now I'll never get them back Wish I'd known just what I had [Outro] Yeah, ah, ah, ah I still see it in my mind Living out our nine to fives No, I'm never going back A New Jersey state of mind There's a dream I always have Where we scream until we laugh And we laugh until we cry Always staring at the sky Used to think the end was near How the hell'd I end up here? And to those I love the most Haven't thought of you in years Saw your dad across the pond Guess you finally proved him wrong Like you knew it all along
