How Did We Get From Saying I Love You

It’s a cold day for September
Was all I thought to say
When I saw you on the street the other day
I knew something changed between us
‘Cause all the talk we made was small
What do you say to someone
When they’ve heard you say it all

It’s an awkward conversation
In a most peculiar way
How did we get from saying, “I love you “
To, “I’ll see you ‘round someday”

It seemed like only days ago
We had so much to say
Did we take it all for granted
Did it all get thrown away
It calls for rain this afternoon
You finally replied
Then there was such a stuttering silence
And I felt my mouth go dry

We’ll just talk about the weather
‘Cause there’s not much more to say
How did we get from saying, “I love you “
To, “I’ll see you ‘round someday”
How did we get from saying, “I love you “
To, “I’ll see you ‘round someday”

Has all the ice been broken
All the surfaces been scratched
Have all the words been spoken
Have we finally met our match

‘Cause it’s an awkward conversation
In a most peculiar way
How did we get from saying, “I love you “
To, “I’ll see you ‘round someday”
How did we get from saying, “I love you “
To, “I’ll see you ‘round someday”
How did we get from saying, “I love you “
To, “I’ll see you ‘round someday”

I guess I’ll just see you around
