Oh
If you could see me now
You wouldn't recognize me now
I know I was your best friend then
And maybe if we met again
You know it's always the same old story
The hero gets out alive
Rides away into the morning
While the rest of us are stuck in time
Everybody wants to go with her
But I was never one to run
She was a big fish in a little pond
And I was just another little fish
Holdin' on
Oh
If you could see me now
You wouldn't recognize me now
I know I was your best friend then
And maybe if we met again
You'd say
Let's just get back to the way it was
We could try to make it like it was
Baby
If you
Let me
I could make it better than it was
We could just get back to the way it was
I could make it better than it was
We used to talk about a new beginning
I never thought I'd be the one
Goin' ninety on the freeway
Ridin' in a Mustang
Lookin' for fun
Sittin' in a big house on a hill now
But I could never shake it off
I'm still a little fish in a big pond
You're just another big fish
In a song
Oh
If you could see me now
You wouldn't recognize me now
I know I was your best friend then
And maybe if we met again
You'd say
Let's just get back to the way it was
We could try to make it like it was
Baby
If you
Let me
I could make it better than it was
We could just get back to the way it was
I could make it better than it was
Did you stay 'cause you
Got cold feet or you
Got too scared?
Or you stayed
'Cause it's hard to leave
So you stopped and stared
At the fork in the road with a foot on the brake and a grip on the wheel
But it's no one's fault if they didn't have the same appeal
If you could see me now
You wouldn't recognize me now
I know I was your best friend then
And maybe if we met again
