  • I've been around the world more than once
    You said it's something we should do
    I found a Polaroid crumpled at the bottom
    I couldn't tell if it was you

    Was it May on the lake, was it not?
    Everything is a dream I forgot
    When we stayed in LA, was it hot?
    Everything is a dream I forgot (I forgot)

    Was, was it not?
    W-w-w-was it, was it, was it not?
    Was, was it not?
    W-w-w-was it, was it?

    I don't even know where you are
    Was it you who taught me to count the stars?
    Or maybe that was later with someone else
    Up on the roof, that lilac smell

    Was it May on the lake, was it not?
    Everything is a dream I forgot
    When we stayed in LA, was it hot?
    Everything is a dream I forgot (I forgot)

    Was, was it not?
    W-w-w-was it, was it, was it not?
    Was, was it not?
    W-w-w-was it, was it, was it not?

    I took the Polaroid, picked it up
    Thought I might hang it in my room
    Thought it lingered there, hovered for a second
    I couldn't find the place for you

    I don't even know how I feel
    Was it you who asked me if love was real?
    I don't know if you meant it but all the time
    You found your way and I found mine

    Did we drive through the night, did we walk?
    Everything is a dream I forgot
    Was it I said goodbye, was it not?
    Everything is a dream I forgot

    Was, was it not?
    W-w-w-was it, was it, was it not?
    Was, was it not?
    W-w-w-was it, was it?

    When we stayed in LA, was it hot? (Was, was it not?)
    (W-w-w-was it, was it, was it not?)
