security question

(album: flounder - 2023)

Met you last night at some party I wandered to
Are you my friend now? You follow me and I follow you
In the morning we pass quietly on the street
You won't ever get to know each face you see

Wish I could make a friend today
Wish I could know your first pet's name
You use in all of your passwords since you were a child
Wish I could ask "How was your day?"
I wish I knew the person's name
You think of under the covers when you slip into the night

Hold the door for the person behind me, it's the only time
To show some warmth 'fore they brush past and swiftly return to their life
Could we lock eyes on the subway? Fall in love today
Or hands in pockets, forget their face and look away

Wish I could make a friend today
Wish I could know your first pet's name
You use in all of your passwords since you were a child
Wish I could ask "How was your day?"
I wish I knew the person's name
You think of under the covers when you slip into the night

We come so close
To changing each other all of the time
We come so close
