two people sitting on a park bench

[v1]
tiny freckles dance around your dark, engaging eyes
sprinkles on the cupcake frosted carefully with sighs

teenaged girls caught staring on a sunny windy day
smiling kinda shyly in that special girlie way

i'm glad I ordered lemon, hope your cookies taste good too
you're looking all around and I'm just looking straight at you

[chorus]
here we are
two people
sitting on a park bench... smiling like we know things...

here we are
two people
sitting on a park bench... smiling like we know things...

but who knows... what the future brings
who knows... what the future brings

[v2]
you'll forget to love me when i forget to smile
saying that we're sorry but its been dead a while

searching for some meaning when meaning isn't there
i'll fail, again, to notice that you cut off all your hair

does it really matter that we'll go out separate ways?
should we get together, even if just for 3 days?

[CHORUS]

[bridge 1]
and even when
I smile again
you won't be there
so will it matter?

and even when
I love again
she won't be you
so will it matter?

can it matter?

does it ever really matter?

[CHORUS]

you grin to yourself before you kiss me goodbye
i wander away, slowly, never knowing why

I think of your pouty lips and you think of my hands
i'm searching for comfort, you want someone who understands

[CHORUS]
