Funny Thing, Nostalgia

Funny thing, nostalgia. 
Hits you without warning
Late at night, first thing in the morning
Or sometime in between

Funny thing, nostalgia
From a song you just heard
From a written or spoken word
Or a picture you might have seen

Funny thing, nostalgia
Those memories, they burn
Of days for which you yearn
But now have long passed

Funny thing, nostalgia
For moments you now lack
That you can't really get back
No matter how much you ask

Funny thing, nostalgia
You're in a new time, a new place
Putting on a different face
Than you did way back then

Funny thing, nostalgia
Those moments are always there
Tucked away somewhere

And even though you can't, you can feel them again
