For the first time, what's past is past.

Took a deep breath in the mirror
He didn't like it when I wore high heels, but I do
Turned the lock and put my headphones on
He always said he didn't get this song but I do, I do

Walked in expecting you'd be late
But you got here early and you stand and wait
I walked to you
You pulled my chair out and helped me in
And you don't know how nice that is but I do

And you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny 'cause he never did
I've been spending the last 8 months thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday, in a cafe
 I watched it begin again

You said you never met one girl
Who had as many James Taylor records as you but I do
We tell stories and you don't know why I'm coming off a little shy
But I do

But you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny 'cause he never did
I've been spending the last 8 months thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday, in a cafe
 I watched it begin again

And we walked down the block to my car
And I almost brought him up
But you start to talk about the movies that your family watches 
Every single Christmas and I won't talk about that
For the first time, what's past is past

'Cause you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny 'cause he never did
I've been spending the last 8 months thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
Then on a Wednesday, in a cafe
 I watched it begin again
Then on a Wednesday, in a cafe
 I watched it begin again
