Past Life Lyrics - Currents - Tame Impala

I was picking up a suit from the dry cleaners 

Which is standard for me 

Thursday, 12: 30 

I got a pretty solid routine these days 

I don't know, it just works for me 

Anyway, I was leaving 

I was getting in my car 

And I went to adjust the rear-view mirror 

But in its reflection, just for a second 

I saw a figure, started to trigger 

Memories of what I'd learned, stopped me in my tracks 

Who was that? It was my lover 

My lover, from a past life

From a past life (Feel like I saw a ghost) 

From a past life (So unexpected) 

From a past life (I was transfixed) 

From a past life 

Well, somewhere between a lover and a friend 

It was different back then 

Surreal, poetic but uncertain 

Like a bizarre chick-flick with a confusing end 

But I shut it down, closed it off 

The sounds and smells I made myself forget 

A cheap solution to block out regret, but it was real 

It just feels like a past life 

From a past life (Crazy) 

From a past life (It takes a lot to trip me out) 

(I always wondered if you wanted my love) 

For the first time 

In a long time 

(I always wondered if you wanted my love)

So I go about my day as normal 

But I can't seem to pass it off as just a random event 

It consumes me 

I thought I was moving on, but I guess I was just switching off 

And now I see my life as the banal slog it instantly became 

And I don't know if I can go on the same 

But I don't wanna dig up old bones 

I mean, I don't even know if she has the same phone number 

Who knows? Maybe she does 

From a past life (I guess there's no harm in trying) 

From a past life (What's the worst that could happen?) 

(I only wondered if you wanted my love) 

For the first time 

In a long time 

(I tried to say it but it never came out right) 

Past life 

From a past life 

(You're not a stranger if you're always on my mind) 

For the first time 

(I know it's late, it just didn't feel right) 

In a long time 

Hello?
