When I read this I have a rhythm in my head for it like a song, but I don't know what song the rhythm matches so I can't link it

Sometimes when I see your car pull in
I feel our memories washing over me
Our words drifting away in the wind

When you bake in the kitchen
Do you remember the frosting on your nose?
When you see the rain
Do you feel me twirling you around?
Do you see me on the bus
And wish you could speak
But I guess this is how it's gonna be
Is this killing you
Like it's killing me?

You still know the special way I tie my shoe
Remember when I showed you
Poetry about the ocean blue
The sunlight filters in your room
Does it cast a rainbow?
Like that one time in the motel
See me talking to my friends
Wishing it would be you I could tell

But now we're lost in a memory
I know you still think of me
But this is how it's gonna be
Is it killing you
Like it's killing me?
