Today in the park
I thought I saw you
That afternoon light
Playin' tricks on you
I wish that you told me
"I'm only passing through"
Passed through me
But you were passing through, didn't you?
We will not break, we will not bend
We'll take these rented souls and
Render them immune to loss or pain
We just pretend it's all the same
Today in the cafรฉ
I thought I saw you
Smoke filters through the window
Playing those tricks with you
Why didn't you tell me
"Hey, I'm only passing through"?
Stopping here a little while
As you were passing through, didn't you?
We will not break, we will not bend
We'll take these rented souls and
Render them immune to loss or pain
We'll just pretend that nothing's changed
