Past Life lyrics

I was picking up a suit from the dry cleaners

Which was standard for me

Thursday, 12:30, I got a pretty solid routine these days

I don't know, it just works for me

Anyway, I was leaving I was getting in my car

And I went to adjust the rearview mirror, but in its reflection

Just for a second, I saw a figure, started to trigger

Memories of what I had learned, stopped me in my tracks

Who was that? it was my lover, my lover, from a past life

From a past life (feel like I saw a ghost)

From a past life (so unexpected)

From a past life (I was transfixed)

From a past life

Well, somewhere between a lover and a friend

It was different back then

Surreal, poetic so I'd say, like a bizarre chick flick with a confusing end

But I shut it down, closed it off

The sounds and smells I made myself forget

A cheap solution to block out a friend, but it was real

It just feels like a past life

From a past life (crazy)

From a past life (it takes a lot to trip me out)

For the first time

In a long time

So I go about my day as normal

But I can't seem to pass it off as just a random event

It consumes me

I thought I was moving on but I guess I was just switching off

And now I see my life as the banal slog it instantly became

And I don't know if I can go on the same

But I don't wanna dig up old bones

I mean, I don't even know if she has the same phone number

Who knows? Maybe she does

From a past life

(I guess there's no harm in trying)

From a past life

(What's the worst that could happen?)

For the first time

In a long time

(I tried to say it but it never came out right)

Past life

From a past life (you're not a stranger if you're always on my mind)

For the first time (I know it's late, it just didn't feel right)

In a long time

Hello?
