  • I knew you before
    Took a lifetime to forget
    But as my eyes meet yours
    I take all I can get
    Lay light up the shadows of my heart
    Return stolen works of art
    Yeah, you can't discern this moment's grace

    But I still remember you
    In that big, old, white Suburban
    And although you look right past me
    With disregard
    The first won't happen twice

    But gazing still at the ground
    More alone than I was then
    I have searched your eyes
    But they don't comprehend
    I crawl back into the shadows of my heart
    And just sit there in the dark
    Where you don't require the love you'll still take

    But I still remember you
    In that big, old, white Suburban
    And although you look right past me
    With disregard
    The first won't happen twice

    And although I've since moved on
    And I've been in love a few times
    There's still a piece of me
    That holds on to you
    'Cause the first won't happen twice
    Won't happen twice
    It won't happen twice

    I remember you
    In that big, old, white Suburban
    And although you look right past me
    With disregard
    And although I've since moved on
    And I've been in love a few times
    There's still a piece of me
    That can't let go of you
    'Cause the first won't happen twice Writer/s: HOLLY HAFERMANN
