Intro

Verse 1

I used to know you when you were young

You were in all my dreams

We sat together in period one

Fridays at eight-fifteen

Now I see your face in the strangest places

Movies and magazines

I saw you talking to Christopher Walken

On my TV screen

Chorus

 But I will wait for you

 As long as I need to

 And if you ever get back to Hackensack

I'll be here for you

Interlude

Verse 2

I used to work in a record store

Now I work for my dad

Scraping the paint of the hardwood floors

The hours are pretty bad

Sometimes I wonder where you are now

Probably in LA

That seems to be where everybody

Else ends up these days

Chorus

 And I will wait for you

 As long as I need to

 And if you ever get back to Hackensack

I'll be here for you

Interlude

Chorus

 And I will wait for you

 As long as I need to

 And if you ever get back to Hackensack

I'll be here for you

 And if you ever get back to Hackensack

I'll be here for you
