Past by Todd Rundgren Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I saw you on the street today
I could not catch your eye or you'd have heard me say
That you look just the same
You haven't changed, no no

But then I realized
We are not even friends and I was so surprised, so surprised
When the teardrops came, yeah

[Chorus]
Living in the past
Living in the past
I'm living in the past, I know
But the past is gone

[Verse 2]
I can't remember when
You didn't cross my mind and pull me back again
Back again into my reverie
And that's why I'm still
[Chorus]
Living in the past
Living in the past
I'm living in the past, I know
But the past is gone

Living in the past
I'm living in the past
Living in the past, I know
But the past is gone
Gone, it's all gone, all gone
It's all gone, all gone
It's all gone

[Bridge]
And I stare out the window as the world drifts by
And my eyes will glaze and I drift away

[Spoken]
Sir, sir wake up. Wake up sir - it's the end of the line, you'll have to get off the train

[Verse 3]
And my todays are gray, the seconds tick away
But if I close my eyes it's only yesterday
And, and I see rainbows surrounding you and me
But that was
[Chorus]
In the past
I know it was the past
'Cause I'm living in the past, I know
But the past is gone

[Outro]
Why am I still living in the past
Living in the past
I'm living in the past, I know
Oh the past, oh the past is gone

Oh I just can't let go now
Living in the past
I've been living in the past, baby
Oh but the past is gone

Past
Past
You're living in the past
'Cause I know the past is gone

Past
Living in the past
Living in the past
Living in the past, baby
Past is gone
I can't get over, can't get over the past now
Past
Past
Past
But the past, past is gone, past is gone
Ooh ooh ooh
