If you’re walking by, I hope you don’t mind If you see an old face I’m sure there’ll be a time that we’re both Stuck in line Just trying to mind our own space In that line Just trying to hide your face And stay out of sight
It just seems so silly to think of these Made up scenes The possibilities of where where we both Could be Just trying to mind our own space In that line Just trying to hide your face And stay out of sight…
So just in case we see each other standing by Let’s just stay safe and be Strangers just this time By now we find just how hard it is to walk by It’s just a scene that I think I’m scared to see And in no doubt do I think That you’d agree I wanna give you all of the space That you need Even if it is your face I’d like to see
So If you walk by I’ll try not to call your name I won’t even mind if you do the same But if we really meet again, would you say hi? A “hey, hello” from my old friend, wouldn’t it be nice?
