Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town
by Pearl Jam
I seem to recognize.. your face
haunting familiar yet
I can't seem to place it
cannot find the candle of thought
to light your name
lifetimes are catching up
with me
all these changes taking place
I wish I'd seen the place
but no ones ever taken me
hearts and thought they fade
fade away
hearts and thoughts they fade
fade away
I swear I recognize your breath
memories like fingerprints
are slowly raising
me you wouldn't recall
for I'm not my former
its hard when your stuck upon the shelf
I changed by not changing at all
small town predicts my fate
perhaps thats what no one wants to see
I just want to scream.. hello
my god its been so long
never dreamed you'd return
but now here you are
and here I am
hearts and thoughts they fade
away
hearts and thoughts they fade
fade away
hearts and thoughts they fade
fade away
hearts and thoughts they fade
away
hearts and thoughts they fade
fade away
hearts and thoughts they fade
fade away
hearts and thoughts they fade
fade away
