Elderly Woman Behind the Counter In a Small Town - Live in Atlanta, Georgia, 07-August-2000 Pearl Jam
[Intro]
1, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3-
[Verse 1]
I seem to recognize your face
Haunting familiar, yet I can't seem to place it
Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name
Lifetimes are catching up with me
All these changes taking place
I wish I'd seen the place but no one's ever taken me
[Chorus]
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away
[Verse 2]
I swear I recognize your breath
Memories, like fingerprints, are slowly raising
Me you wouldn't recall for I'm not my former
It's hard when you're stuck upon the shelf
I changed by not changing at all
Small town predicts my fate
Perhaps that's what no one wants to see
I just want to scream, "Hello
My god its been so long
Never dreamed you'd return
But now here you are and here I am"
