Mysterious lost weekends in a land where time stands still
Where people fall in love again just for one more thrill
My girl and I went walkin' by the Caribbean Sea
Someone snorkeled by, raised her head up high
And my girl said, "Who's she?"
Pre-you, a friend of mine who's old not new
Pre-you, she's just another girl that I once knew
Pleasant smile, a pretty face, another time, another place
Pre-you, what's a guy supposed to do?
We'll blame it on the weather and the stars that shine above
For bringing us together and filling us with love
So don't you fret my lady 'cause what we have is strong
Let her swim away, out into the bay
Your place is here with me, she's pre-you
Long ago we were close but the fire went out
She's a tease can't you tell that's what she's all about
Like an old broken clock on the wall she's got nothin' to say
She was long ago, she's so yesterday
She's pre-you, she's just a friend so don't be blue
Pre-you, only yesterday just passin' through
Another page in history, steppin' stone for you and me
Pre-you, pre-you, pre-you
