Future Looks Like You

[Verse 1] I woke up in ’55 Cherry Coke, chrome outside Jukebox cryin’ in the corner booth Everybody dressed like a picture shoot Leather jacket, hair slicked back Cadillac fins and a paper map Girl at the counter smiled real nice But she didn’t have your kind of eyes I tried to dance like I knew the steps Stepped on time, then I missed the rest Clock on the wall started spinnin’ loose Next thing I know, I’m missin’ you [Pre-Chorus] Every year got a different sky Every road got a new disguise I keep landin’ in another view But all I see is you [Chorus] I’ve seen tomorrow, it ain’t nothin’ new If I don’t wake up next to you I ran through time, I bent the rules Still couldn’t find a better truth Flying cars, neon moons Don’t mean much without your shoes By the bed, right where they do I’ve seen the future, it looks like youuuu [Verse 2] Dropped in ’84 by an arcade sign Pac-Man glow and a Walkman whine VHS love on a rental shelf DeLorean parked like it knew itself Big hair band on a basement wall Quarter in the slot, missed your call Some girl said, “You look outta place” I said, “Yeah, I’m from a heartbreak away” Mall lights buzzed like a cheap tattoo Time kept glitchin’ in my left boot I saw the past in a brand-new hue But every color turned into you [Pre-Chorus] Every year got a different sky Every road got a new disguise I keep landin’ in another view But all I see is you [Chorus] I’ve seen tomorrow, it ain’t nothin’ new If I don’t wake up next to you I ran through time, I bent the rules Still couldn’t find a better truth Flying cars, neon moons Don’t mean much without your shoes By the bed, right where they do I’ve seen the future, it looks like youuuu [Bridge] I went forward, Mars was red Robot bartender shook his head Said, “Boy, you’re lost,” I said, “That’s fair” Then I saw your name in the thin night air Hologram stars, silver rain Still felt empty just the same Guess forever ain’t a place you choose It’s just somebody waiting there for you [Final Chorus] I’ve seen tomorrow, it ain’t nothin’ new If I don’t wake up next to you I ran through time, I bent the rules Still couldn’t find a better truth Flying cars, neon moons Don’t mean much without your shoes By the bed, right where they do I’ve seen the future, it looks like youuuu
