the past is catching up to me - jeremy jordan lyrics
gatsby:
it was under a willow tree
five years ago in louisville
i kissed the nicest girl i’ll meet
and time stood still
it was clear she had her pick
of any man in uniform
i kissed her, and i knew i’d never stray
but then the world got in the way
fought a war that wasn’t mine
i lost men, and i lost time
her kiss would keep me going
i pushed on never knowing
when i was done
when i got home
the nicest girl i’d known
believed that i was gone
but i kept holding on
we’ll go back to that kiss
to that row of willow trees
all the years that we missed
will blow away with the breeze
they say you can’t relive the past
but you know what i see?
finally the past
is catching up to me
soon we’ll share in what i’ve done
i’ll say that i have crossed a line
i tell you
every lavish night was by design
i’ve become the man her world
demanded me to be
with only a nickel to my name
i’ve bet it all to get in the game (?)
had a past to rectify
made that nickel multiply
it took no time to love her
just to be worthy of her
and now she’ll see the path i laid us
the second chance i made
for us to start again
when we return to then
we’ll go back to that kiss
to that row of willow trees
all the years that we missed
will blow away with the breeze
they say you can’t relive the past
but you know what i see?
finally the past
is catching up to me
we’ll be living back in time
just as it was before
only now she will have everything and more
money can’t buy happiness
no sir
but it brings me a little closer…
take them back (?)
to that kiss
to that row of willow trees
all the years
that we missed
will blow away with the breeze
they say you can’t relive the past
but i know what i see, oh
finally the past
finally the past
finally the past
is catching up to me
