Verse 1
Same five lockers, same chipped blue paint
Same girl fixing eyeliner using my face
Somebody’s running ’cause the first bell rang
Somebody’s lying ’bout where they were last Saturday
Your mom knew my order at the drive-thru window
My dad knew exactly whose car was whose
We spent half our lives in somebody’s basement
Talking like there wasn’t a world past June
Pre-Chorus
We never said, “Don’t forget me”
Never thought we’d have to
You don’t make plans to keep somebody
You see every afternoon
Chorus
See you Monday
Same time, same place
Save me a seat, tell me everything I missed
Like nothing’s ever gonna change
See you Monday
That’s what we always said
Like there’d always be another hallway
Another weekend up ahead
Funny how forever sounded
Like four little words back then
See you Monday
See you Monday
See you Monday again
Verse 2
Now I know your birthday from a notification
Know you had a baby from somebody else’s page
I remember your first car, your childhood dog
But I couldn’t tell you what you do these days
There’s a girl I shared twelve summers with
Haven’t heard her voice since twenty-one
And a boy who knew every word I hated
Now I’d probably walk right past him if he came
Pre-Chorus
Nobody slammed a doorway
Nobody chose goodbye
We just stopped knowing everything
About each other’s lives
Chorus
See you Monday
Same time, same place
Save me a seat, tell me everything I missed
Like nothing’s ever gonna change
See you Monday
That’s what we always said
Like there’d always be another hallway
Another weekend up ahead
Funny how forever sounded
Like four little words back then
See you Monday
See you Monday
See you Monday again
Post-Chorus
Hey—
Who knew “later” had an ending?
Hey—
Who knew “see ya” meant anything?
We didn’t
We didn’t
God, I’m glad we didn’t
Bridge
Sometimes I’m home and I take the long way
Past the field, past the school, past the street
And for half a second everybody’s seventeen
And somebody’s yelling my name at me
Then the light turns green
And the whole thing goes
But I still know exactly
Where everybody used to sit
Final Chorus
See you Monday
Same time, same place
I hope somebody still saves you a seat
And knows the look you make
See you Monday
God, we said it like a fact
Like the world could take us anywhere
And somehow bring us back
Maybe that was what was perfect
We never knew when it would end
See you Monday
See you Monday
I’d say it all again
Outro
To the girls in the bathrooms
The boys in the halls
The houses I knew
Before I knew myself at all
No, we didn’t lose each other
Not exactly, anyway
We just ran out
Of Mondays
One day
