Acquaintances

Lyrics: Jackson MacIntosh/Allison Goldfarb Music: Jackson MacIntosh/Allison Goldfarb “Nice to see you, Been so long” Such a bore
Unembarrassed Unemployed What’s the point
I’m not the person that you want me to be This conversation feels lonely
(Call me sometime… I’m in Paris, so…)
Acquaintances (They look the same) They go and they come (Who was she, where am I?) Waiting in line (What was her name?) Coupling off (But all my friends have gone)
Acquaintances (They look the same) They go and they come (Who was she, where am I?) A face in the crowd (What was her name?) I’m looking for one (But all my friends have gone) They say you don’t come around no more But I keep an eye on the door Maybe one of these nights You’ll walk through
Allegory But it’s never the truth Tell your story Indirect, without use
Acquaintances (They look the same) They go and they come (Who was she, where am I?) Waiting in line (What was her name?) Coupling off (But all my friends have gone) Acquaintances (They look the same) They go and they come (Who was she, where am I?) A face in the crowd (What was her name?) I’m looking for one (But all my friends have gone)
They say you don’t come around no more But I keep an eye on the door Maybe one of these nights You’ll walk through
