[Verse 1] I saw your name On a paper cup At the station gate And my chest went quiet Same kind eyes Same small half-smile Thirty years gone In a breath, you're here [Pre-Chorus] You said my name Like it never left Like time was just A train we missed And I stood still With my old held-in ache Then you laughed once And the room changed shape [Chorus] Thirty years gone And you look the same Thirty years gone And the years melt away I forgot my age I forgot my pain Thirty years gone And I feel you again (Feel you again) [Verse 2] Your coat was blue Mine was worn and thin We talked too fast Like we might lose it You showed me the scar On your left hand I showed you mine We both smiled at that [Pre-Chorus] You said the spring Still smells like rain Back where we were Before we changed And in your voice Was the old front porch The moths in the screen The door left open [Chorus] Thirty years gone And you look the same Thirty years gone And the years melt away I forgot my age I forgot my pain Thirty years gone And I feel you again (Feel you again) [Bridge] If I had known That one small day Could hold your face This way I would have kept Every letter safe Every little thing We made [Final Chorus] Thirty years gone And you look the same Thirty years gone And the years melt away I forgot my age I forgot my pain Thirty years gone And I feel you again (Feel you again) Thirty years gone Say my name again Thirty years gone And I'm seventeen (I'm seventeen)
