Nothing In Common

There was this kid a few years back
A little older than me
Who lived in my house and looked a lot like my mother
There was this kid i knew back then and i was sure he would be
The greatest star i’d ever known
I’d watch him walk into a room and he was never out of place
He knew the answer to every question
The square and cube of every prime
A name to go with every face
Like he was king upon a throne
And we had nothing in common
Nothing in common
My mother was convinced that i failed english out of spite
We had nothing in common
Nothing in common
And 30-some years later i’m still tortured and amazed
By how Daivd always got the answers right
Now later on, i knew this guy
He was in high school i think
Had lots of friends and was the pride of the family
He’d call me names and punch my head and made me feel like a dink
And i would hide from him all day
But if i couldn’t find a friend
Which happened more than i’d have liked
I’d go where he was and sulk around him
He’d say you dont know how to throw and just dont play your stupid songs
And then he’d toss the ball my way
We had nothing in common
Nothing in common
I thought he was a jerk and who know what he thought i’d be
But 20-some years later im still grateful and surprised
By the little gifts that David gave to me
I knew this guy before I wed
He had a vision in his head
Of how his life would play out and his dreams would come true
But he was stumbling, he was stalled
And every year after he called
I’d just think man, there goes the lonliest guy I ever knew
People think i’m failing
They never understand
But temporary set backs
Are part of what I planned
And David had his vision
And david played his game
We have nothing much in common
But we are more or less the same
There was a guy who met a girl who had a cat that fell in love
That got a house and made a vow
He took her hand and they lived happily ever after
Happily ever after
Happily ever after
Here’s to happily ever after
Happily ever after
