Grocery Store Sweethearts

[Intro]
(A bright, gently strummed acoustic guitar begins with a happy, mid-tempo groove. A clean, melodic electric guitar plays a sweet, twangy fill.)

[Verse 1 - Him]
Well I'll be damned, is that really you? Thought my eyes were playin' tricks
Standin' in the cereal aisle, tryin' to get your sweet tooth fix.
You still bite your lip a little when you're tryin' to decide
Some things about a person, they can't run and they can't hide.
Been a minute since I've seen you, girl, you're lookin' like a dream.

[Verse 2 - Her]
I almost didn't recognize you, didn't know who I was seein'
But you still got that crooked smile that's always been trouble leadin'.
I'm just back in town for the weekend, to see my mom and dad
Didn't think I'd run into the best trouble I ever had.
Funny seeing you right here, it's a pleasant surprise.

[Chorus - Both, in a Sweet, Hopeful Harmony]
Who'd have thought that we'd be standing here, a little older now
Trying to make some small talk and somehow remembering how
It used to feel in your old truck, chasing that same old moon?
Who'd have thought that seeing you this Saturday afternoon
Would feel like coming home, after all this time apart?
Two crazy, long-lost, grocery store sweethearts.

[Verse 3 - Him]
Got some fancy city crackers and a bottle of red wine
That's a little different from the girl I knew back in '09.
But your laugh is still the same one that kept me up all night.

[Verse 4 - Her]
You still buying cheap beer and that frozen pizza kind?
I remember sharing one of those when you were still all mine.
It's funny how so much has changed, and how much is still the same.

[Bridge - Both, singing together]
And the fluorescent lights above us feel like a spotlight now
And the world is full of strangers, but they've disappeared somehow...
And all I see is you.

[Instrumental Break]
(A short, sweet, and melodic instrumental. The clean electric guitar plays a happy, twangy solo, supported by a bright, cheerful organ. It should sound like a smile.)

[Chorus - Both, in a more Confident Harmony]
Who'd have thought that we'd be standing here, a little older now
Trying to make some small talk and somehow remembering how
It used to feel in your old truck, chasing that same old moon?
Who'd have thought that seeing you this Saturday afternoon
Would feel like coming home, after all this time apart?
Two crazy, long-lost, grocery store sweethearts.

[Outro - Trading Lines]
(The music gets quiet, just the acoustic guitar and bass.)
(Him) So... you got your crackers for your mom...
(Her) And you got your frozen pizza...
(Him) Hey... what're you doing after this?
