Still talk in present tense
But I'm not with you when you're with me
I wish I could see through all the changes
But we both know that you're not with me when I'm with you

And listening's not easy when you've heard it all before
And heavy repetition gets so easy to ignore
So we can call this talking if that's what you need to hear
Just don't call it easy
'Cause it's just not easy

'Cause it's just not easy for me
When you're only a time and place
No, it's just not easy for me
'Cause you were more than a time and place
