[Verse 1]
Mysterious lost weekends
In a land where time stands still
Where people fall in love again
Just for one more thrill

[Verse 2]
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?"

[Chorus 1]
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?

[Verse 3]
We'll blame it on the weather
And the stars that shine above
For bringing us together
And filling us with love

[Verse 4]
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
[Refrain]
She's pre-you

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
Pre-you
Pre-you
Pre-you
