The girl on the street corner can't wave back at me
i asked her why and she had to think
she turned away and said that times really have changed
i don't know why she looked the same
Oh, i ask why all her love i'll have to lose today
oh, i ask why all her time she'll spend to turn away from me
oh, i ask why
why must you play this charade with me?
The girl from the sandbox once wore a necklace that i had made
i don't know why she forgot those days
she said from beneath her pearls that these were the real things
i don't know why she looked so fake
The girl from laundry just had waved back at me
i don't know why i forgot her name
she said from beneath her clothes that times really have changed
i don't know why she's bothering me
