My past is present in an hour glass dress My head is spinning and I can't get my breath I'm drinking doubles just one thing on my mind I'm glad to see her but I wish I was blind She makes her entrance and she looks like a dream My fingers tremble but I can't feel a thing My knees are shakin', I don't think I can stand I don't talk about running boys, I don't think I can I said it's over and I thought it was true My discomposure makes me feel like a fool My past is present with some stranger in tow Why she looks happy boys, I don't want to know So much confusion makes me feel like a clown My past is present, and it's bringing me down I told my friends that I was really okay Then she walks in with him and blows me away All conversation has just come to an end This situation's really doing me in Well My past is present and it throws me a curve I want to tell her but I don't have the nerve I used to hold her in the palm of my hand My past is present I just don't understand Somebody help me just to hold back the years My past is present and there's gonna be tears I've tried to tell myself it's all a mistake My past is present and it's all I can take Well My past is present
