In love with my Ex

(Soft electric piano, warm bass, brushed snare)

Yeah...

I been thinkin' 'bout you lately

Feels like a dream from a past life

Remember the hallway? The lockers?

Saw you at the reunion, you were standin' by the punch

Same little smile, but it's deeper now, a different kind of touch

We talked 'bout kids and careers, all the miles in between

But your eyes found the rhythm of a song we used to sing

And I'm fallin', I'm fallin' again

Through the cracks of time, where do we begin?

It's more than a memory, more than a friend

I'm fallin' in love with my high school ex, again

You called last Tuesday, just to hear about my day

We laughed 'bout Mr. Evans, and the games we used to play

That old geometry class, where you passed me all your notes

Now you're holdin' my heart in a way I never wrote

And I'm fallin', I'm fallin' again

Through the cracks of time, where do we begin?

It's more than a memory, more than a friend

I'm fallin' in love with my high school ex, again

Is this just nostalgia wearin' a new face?

Or did we leave a promise in that old, empty space?

All those first loves, they're supposed to fade

But your gravity's pullin' on the choices that I made...

And I'm fallin', I'm fallin' again

Through the cracks of time, where do we begin?

It's more than a memory, more than a friend

I'm fallin' in love with my high school ex, again

(Spoken over fading chords)

Maybe some stories aren't meant to end on page one...

Maybe we're just readin' the next chapter... together.

(Fade out on a Dmaj7 chord)
