I don't think about her that much
Why think of turmoil when at peace
I still don't know how I came to her world
I still don't know why I had to leave
Now I'm standing in a street mall
Wondering about her
Window shopping for a long lost lover
Window shopping for a long lost lover
I was a nervous wreck and a fine mess
A loose cannon in her arms
I drank and cussed and always denied
That we were doomed right from the start
And I never could figure out
Just what it was that she wanted from me
Window shopping for a long lost lover
Window shopping for a long lost lover, that's me
Window shopping for a long lost lover
A long lost lover
Losing someone
Is like a walking death
It's not easy to forget
And I haven't just yet
We all get like this sometimes
Strained eyes on a distant face
I bet she's walking tall right now
I bet she's walking in a higher place
Or is she standing in a street mall
Wondering about me
Window shopping for a long lost lover
Window shopping for a long lost lover, that's me
Window shopping for a long lost lover
A long lost lover
A long lost lover
A long lost lover, that's me
