I was stronger when you held me
And I was braver when you would tell me
You couldn't wait to see the man I would become

Now at the table, an empty setting
And I remember without regretting
And I hope you see the man I have become

Boxes in the basement
Old dusty memories
But there's something 'bout you lately
That's close to me

I wear the jacket that you once gave me
And I walk the places you used to take me
And I remember that I'm the man you love

Boxes in the basement
Old dusty memories
But there's something 'bout you lately
That's close to me

You've gone before me
And it's hard for me to see
There's something 'bout you lately
Oh something 'bout you lately
There's something 'bout you lately
That's close to me
