I was cleaning out my car again
Peeling leaves off the windshield
Remembering the summer that we had
You were sitting next to me
Singing songs off scratched CDs
All the Leaves Are Brown
And stuff like that
And I see layers over layers
Every one upon the last
The past ain’t just the past
The past ain’t just the past
And the history of everything
Is written in the cracks
The past ain’t just the past
Colorado River running dry as we drove through
Water marked rocks and golden grass
We found an arrowhead by Lake Havasu
Hung it on the mirror and went through the underpass
I see layers over layers
Every one upon the last
Past ain’t just the past
The past ain’t just the past
And the history of everything
Is written in the cracks
Past ain’t just the past
They say it all just comes and go
But hey man, I don’t know
Seems every little thing
Pulls me back
I see layers over layers
Every one upon the last
Past ain’t just the past
Past ain’t just the past
And the history of everything
Is written in the cracks
Past ain’t just the past
