Past - Todd Rundgren

I saw you on the street today

I could not catch your eye or you’d have heard me say

That you look just the same

You haven’t changed, no no

But then I realized

We are not even friends and I was so surprised, so surprised

When the teardrops came, yeah

Living in the past

Living in the past

I’m living in the past, I know

But the past is gone

I can’t remember when

You didn’t cross my mind and pull me back again

Back again into my reverie

And that’s why I’m still

Living in the past

Living in the past

I’m living in the past, I know

But the past is gone

Living in the past

I’m living in the past

Living in the past, I know

But the past is gone

Gone, it’s all gone, all gone

It’s all gone, all gone

It’s all gone

And I stare out the window as the world drifts by

And my eyes will glaze and I drift away

Sir, sir wake up.

Wake up sir — it’s the end of the line, you’ll have to get

off the train

And my todays are gray, the seconds tick away

But if I close my eyes it’s only yesterday

And, and I see rainbows surrounding you and me

But that was

In the past

I know it was the past

'Cause I’m living in the past, I know

But the past is gone

Why am I still living in the past

Living in the past

I’m living in the past, I know

Oh the past, oh the past is gone

Oh I just can’t let go now

Living in the past

I’ve been living in the past, baby

Oh but the past is gone

Past

Past

You’re living in the past

'Cause I know the past is gone

Past

Living in the past

Living in the past

Living in the past, baby

Past is gone

I can’t get over, can’t get over the past now

Past

Past

Past

But the past, past is gone, past is gone

Ooh ooh ooh
