Stuck In The Past - Aimee Mann

Stuck in the past

Like drawing rings around Saturn

The shadow is cast

But now it follows a pattern

I don't know what that arrangement was

I could never tell

But you could

I had hopes but the hopes all fell

Leveled with the smell

Of new wood

Stuck in the past

I plan it only on paper

Guess I'm the last

A living memory of vapor

I don't know what that arrangement was

I could never tell

Like you could

I had hopes but that's just because

Hoping was a well

Where you stood

I had all this time while Houston dozed

Where I almost had a line composed

But the moment passed the hatch is closed

Stuck in the past

Where I'll be pulling that lever

It happened so fast

And then it happens forever

I don't know what that arrangement was

I could never tell

I don't know what that arrangement was

I could never tell

I don't know what that arrangement was

I could never tell

Like you could

Stuck in the past

Just drawing rings around Saturn
