Lyrics

1977, You were eleven
Do you remember ? I don't remember
They told me you would talk like her
Sing like her, think of me like she did

Did they get the part right where
We laughed so much as we left the fair
The cab ride seemed to last a year
Then there's what seemed like last night
I'm sure they don't get some dates right
But it feels like we just had that fight
So, I guess -

They can do anything these days
Find lost friends and toys
Help moms find lost boys - anything
They can do anything these days
Search for loves you never had
Make your coffee weeks ahead -anything

1987, You were in heaven
Old for your grade - we had it made (I don't remember)
Do you remember ? (I don't remember)
They told me it would take some time
But if I try, there's more that you will say than "I don't remember."
(I don't remember) Well, ok

They can do anything these days
Find lost friends and toys
Help moms find lost boys - anything
They can do anything these days
Search for loves you never had
Make your coffee weeks ahead -anything
