Pearl Jam | Lyrics | Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town

1, 2, 3, 4, 2

I seem to recognize your face
Haunting familiar, yet I can't seem to place it
Cannot find the candle of thought
To light your name
Lifetimes are catching up with me

All these changes taking place
I wish I'd seen the place
But no one's ever taken me

Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away
Oh hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away

I swear I recognize your breath
Memories, like fingerprints are slowly raising
You wouldn't recall for I'm not my former
It's odd when your stuck upon the shelf

I changed by not changing at all
Small town predicts my fate
Perhaps that's what no one wants to see

Oh I just want to scream, "Hello"
Oh my God its been too long
Never dreamed you'd return
But now here you are and here I am
Hearts and thoughts they fade away

Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away
Oh hearts and thoughts they fade, fade

Hearts and thoughts they fade oh away
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away
