Your Past for Years

All my love for you in a cup, in a bottle When I save it up, it evaporates Now it's in the air and it's leaving the country Now it's everywhere I want us to be So don't forget, I'm your future I've been your past for years now Even if you don't see me I'm the reason you're here now All your favourite things in a pile by the laundry Make me wonder why I would ever leave For a distant dream that may or may not bring That happy ending So don't forget, you're my future You've been my past for years now Even if you don't see me You're the reason I'm here now All our love boxed up, no, this house can't contain it And this suburb gets smaller every year So we let it spill through the streets, to the city Where it washes through unnoticed So don't forget, it's our future It's been our past for years now Even if we don't see it It's the reason we're here now It's the reason we're here now
